Mon May 17 02:28:43 EDT 2010

Hi,
I am a beginner with Openlayers. I tried out the tutorials and could display
maps from metacarta. Now i am trying to display google maps inside
OpenLayers. i could display the google maps.., but how can i display a
specif portion of map when it comes first. eg: how can i display India when
it first shows.
i will copy the code below :

<html>
<head>
<script src="/root/Desktop/OpenLayers-2.8-rc5/OpenLayers.js"></script>
<script type="text/javascript">
 var map;
 function init() {
map_controls = [ new OpenLayers.Control.OverviewMap(),new
OpenLayers.Control.LayerSwitcher(),new OpenLayers.Control.PanZoomBar(),new
OpenLayers.Control.MouseToolbar(),new
OpenLayers.Control.KeyboardDefaults()];
var map = new OpenLayers.Map('map', { controls: map_controls });
var wms = new OpenLayers.Layer.WMS(
"Ravi's OpenLayers WMS",
"http://maps.google.com/maps/api/staticmap?center=63.259591,-144.667969&zoom=6&size=400x400\
&markers=color:blue|label:S|62.107733,-145.541936&markers=size:tiny|color:green|Delta+Junction,AK\&markers=size:mid|color:0xFFFF00|label:C|Tok,AK&sensor=false",{layers:
'basic'});
map.addLayers([wms]);
map.zoomToMaxExtent();
}
</script>
</head>
 <body onload="init()">
<div id="map" style="width: 600px; height: 350px"></div>
</body>
