re set map center,or specify zoom level with
mapzoomtoextent<BR></FONT><BR></DIV>
<DIV></DIV>Hi all,
<DIV><BR></DIV>
<DIV>wanted to solicit some advice from the community. I'm working on a simple
dynamic app I wanted to ask about the best method to approach this.</DIV>
<DIV><BR></DIV>
<DIV>the app sets an arbitrary point, which I suppose could simply be changed to
zoomtomaxextent, but re-centers the map once the user has agreed to opt-in to
being geolocated. The issue is that the bounds of the single marker are much
smaller than the 50km search radius of the script</DIV>
<DIV><BR></DIV>
<DIV>
<DIV>var bounds = marker.getDataExtent();</DIV>
<DIV>map.zoomToExtent(bounds);</DIV></DIV>
<DIV><BR></DIV>
<DIV>I don't want the map to recenter the bounds with every additionally added
point (nearby tweets), which I feel contributes to a poor UI. How could I get
the centerlonlat of the marker layer? I'm trying this method and it isn't
working</DIV>
<DIV><BR></DIV>
<DIV>
<DIV>var bounds = marker.getDataExtent();</DIV>
<DIV>var new_cent = map.zoomToExtent(bounds).getCenterLonLat();</DIV>
<DIV>map.setCenter(new OpenLayers.LonLat(new_cent).transform(new
OpenLayers.Projection("EPSG:4326"),map.getProjectionObject()),2);</DIV></DIV>
