[OpenLayers-Users] Vector layer positioning problem

[Todd Nemanich]

Hello,
        I'm having a problem with a vector layer displaying
incorrectly in IE (works fine in firefox). I have a marker and a
vector showing the path taken. In IE6, the vector is drawn in the
wrong position (the path appears correct, but in the wrong spot). The
problem appears to be related to the zoom, as the difference between
the marker and the endpoint of the vector increases as you zoom out. I
tried using the nightly build of OpenLayers.js, but that didn't fix
the vector. The map is using the mercator projection.
        I did some checking on the lists, and it sounded like it might
be related to a margin element in the CSS
http://www.nabble.com/GML-vector-layers-in-IE-to14623748.html#a14623748
I tried setting margin: 0px on the map div, but that didn't correct
the problem. When I looked into the output, it seems to pickup a
margin attribute at the group tag inside the vector layer but before
my linestring. According to IE, these are the styles on the group tag:
display: inline-block
font-family: verdana,sans-serif
font-size: 8pt
hasLayout: -1
height: 134217.727pt
margin: -1.5pt auto auto 132pt
margin-left: 132pt
margin-top: -1.5pt
position: absolute
text-align: center
visibility: visible
width: 134217.727pt

I've included below the applied stylesheets according to IE. I have no
idea how the margin, height, or width attributes are being set to
these values. Has anyone else seen this, or have any suggestions to
correct it? Thanks!
