[OpenLayers-Users] RC 2.5-RC3 Problem with Boxes

Thu Sep 27 13:44:24 EDT 2007

I switch the example.

var boxes = new OpenLayers.Layer.Boxes("Images");
    var bounds = new OpenLayers.Bounds(-96.0051889, 28.9812486, -95.9925747,
28.9917903 );
   var box = new OpenLayers.Marker.Box(bounds);
   box.setBorder("yellow",4);
   boxes.addMarker(box);
   map.addLayer(boxes);

   map.zoomToExtent(bounds);

But then I get a yellow box in the middle of the map.  I want a box the SAME
size as the viewport I am looking at.  How do I do that?
