[OpenLayers-Users] How to access style properties of features?

Yes, it works fine when I use the code released eg. by an onclick event.
When I use it within one of my style functions, I then get a "too many
recursions" error.
Anyhow, thanks to your earlier post I found a workaround that works fine
for me. Whenever I set a new style property that I need for further
calculations, I store the value in a feature attribute. This way I can
access the value later on without a need for a direct access to a style
or whatever property.

Thanks a lot for your hints!
