[OpenLayers-Users] activate / deactivate events

[Andreas Hocevar]

Hi Karsten,

in order to unregister events, you cannot use an anonymous function. You would have to do something like the following:

function handler(e) {...}
map.events.register('click', map, handler);

And then you can simply unregister the event using

map.events.unregister('click', map, handler);
