[OpenLayers-Users] problems with the overview map

[Lars Schrader]

Hello Tim,

thanks for your email. I think the missing 'mapOptions'-phrase was one reason 
for my problem. Today I have solved the problem. The solution was your 
suggestion and the idea from Bart. Thanks a lot!
One another problem: Is at right, that the layer for the overview map must be 
a base layer?

Greetings, Lars
