[OpenLayers-Dev] Generate multiple polygons on a single click

Mon Jun 11 23:00:06 PDT 2012

Hi I'm a newbie in openlayers, I took the following code from the examples provided by openlayers, I'm trying to create 4 polygons with a single click, is this possible? 
Thanks in advance for any help.
Code:
