[OpenLayers-Dev] NavToolbar control

[jonz]

Yes, I had seen the navtoolbar example and the behaviour is as I would like. 
Unfortunately, and I couldn't figure out why, that's not exactly what
happens with my map.

click on dragZoom
click again on dragZoom
Zooms in one level

I  debugged it, and caught the "mouseup" event coming from drag.js was
causing the zoom. This same type of thing does NOT occur with navtoolbar
example.


To answer your question briefly, yes, I am doing something different (in the
implementation) than you are, and surely that is the source of the problems.

I created the toolbar by hand myself. I've been commissioned to "use" a
toolbar which is made with a series of div's and images, and so instead of
using the toolbar from OpenLayers, I just threw the toolbar into the map div
and added links to the controls. so.. I have something like this as far as
html goes.
  
<div id="map" style="width:400; height:400">
  <div style="position: absolute; top: 5px; left: 5px; z-index: 10001;">
    <div style="position: absolute; top: 0px; left: 0px;">
       <div style="position: absolute; top: 0px; left: 65px;">
              <nobr> dragON.jpg </nobr>


dragZoomChange is:

function dragZoomChange(img)
  {
  var name = img.src.replace(/.*\//,'').replace(/.jpg/,'');
  var newsrc = img.src.replace(/(.*\/)(.*$)/,'$1');
  if (name == 'dragON')
    {
    control_ZoomBox.activate();
    map.events.registerPriority("mouseup", this, this.mouseup);
    newsrc = newsrc + "drag.jpg";
   }
  else
   {
    control_ZoomBox.deactivate();
    map.events.unregister("mouseup", this, this.mouseup);
    newsrc = newsrc + "dragON.jpg";
   }
 img.src = newsrc;
}


P.S: Thanks so much for being so active in the forum.
