[OpenLayers-Users] distinguish "click" from "drag"

[Bobby Braswell]

I was trying out Tim Schaub's version
<script src="http://dev.openlayers.org/sandbox/tschaub/feature/lib/ 
OpenLayers.js" type="text/javascript"></script>

In order to get the WMS "gutter" feature.

When I use regular OpenLayers API the drag does not cause a click.

That sort of narrows down the problem. I'm very sorry for the  
unnecessary confusion.
