<DIV align=left><PRE><FONT face=Arial size=2>I'm attempting to use the Box Handler to allow the user to draw a bounding box on the map. (code below)</FONT></PRE></DIV>
<DIV align=left><PRE><FONT face=Arial size=2>the problem im having is that the feature that ends up being created is suppose to be a polygon with the same bounds produced by the box,</FONT></PRE></DIV>
<DIV align=left><PRE><FONT face=Arial size=2>but what i end up with is an extreamly tiny polygon at 0,0.</FONT></PRE><PRE><FONT face=Arial size=2>I'm using a google base so i thought maybe the projection was the culprit, but i've tried transforming the bounds and nothing good seems to come from it.</FONT></PRE><PRE><FONT face=Arial size=2>any ideas?</FONT></PRE><PRE><FONT face=Arial size=2></FONT><FONT size=2> </PRE></DIV>
