I am feeling dense today.. so maybe its obvious but how do I use a
ClickHandler
on something other than the map itself (the boxes in the basic example
would be nice)?
Do I need to trap the event on the map and run through the boxes to fire
click event
based on a bounds test of those?
If you have to go through hoops to make this function in a more
natural way it might be nice to have an example of it.
