[OpenLayers-Users] openlayer markers located at the wrong place

[maven apache]

Mario Danelli:

Thanks for your attention and the codes.

It seem that the `OpenLayers.Marker` have no native support methods like
`setPosition()` or something else to update its position.

Since in my opinion, destroy-create-destroy.. will be a performance consuming
problem, that is why I keep one object of  `Marker` to reuse it.

I think it is a pity.

APIs like this kinds should be considered.

And I hope the development team of OL will notice this post. :)

And thank you anyway. :)
