      <br>
        The layers order within the container shouldn't be affected by
      it and yes, if that layer container should be the top-most layer
      if your vector layers are added last (please, someone correct me
      if I'm wrong).<br>
      <br>
        You could provide some code or a live example if you have an
      issue with this.  It would be easier for us to help more.<br>
      <br>
      Regards,<br>

            <div>Hi Robert,<br>
              <br>
                This layer is an OpenLayers.Layer.Vector.RootContainer
              object.  It gets automatically created when you specify an
              array of layers to the SelectFeature control.  In short,
              it was created to solve the "I can't click on vectors if
              they are not in the topmost layer" issue.  You can read
              more about this in following ticket :<br>

                <div class="h5">Hello all,<br>
                  <br>
                  I have multiple vector layers on my map, one being
                  just a regular layer I plot GeoJSON to, while the
                  others are KML layers. I have them both using the same
                  OpenLayers.Control.SelectFeature object, and I noticed
                  a 'phantom' layer that is now in the map.layers
                  property called
                  'openlayers.control.selectfeature_<some
                  number>_container'. My question is, what is this
                  layer? It seems to effect the z indexing of the KML
                  layers, and by that I mean, if the z index of the
                  container is under a raster layer, the KML features
                  are also underneath. Does that make sense?<br>
                  <br>
                  Thanks in advance! <br>
