[OpenLayers-Users] Click popups on marker objects.

[Keith]

Hi.  I'm just getting started with OpenLayers, so please forgive some of the
more trivial questions.

 

I've been through most of the mailing list, live examples, and OpenLayers
API, but have missed this information if it's there.

 

Currently, I just want to create a marker on the map, and create a popup
when I click on on it.  Eventually, I want to implement the tabbed popup
from slippy map, but need to take baby steps while I learn.

 

I have the following code:

 

----------------------------------------------------------------------------
-------------------------------------------

var markersLayer = new OpenLayers.Layer.Markers("Tracking Icons");  

map.addLayer(markersLayer);   

    

var marker = new OpenLayers.Marker(

                        new OpenLayers.LonLat(x_coord, y_coord),

                        new
OpenLayers.Icon("/kamap/mapserver/images/AQUA.png",new
OpenLayers.Size(20,34)));

 

markersLayer.addMarker(marker);

 

var testPopup = new OpenLayers.Popup("test popup", 

                        new OpenLayers.LonLat(  X_COORD  , Y_COORD  ),

                        new OpenLayers.Size(200,200),

                        "test popup",

                        true);   

 

marker.events.register("click", marker, 

            function (e) {

                   map.addPopup(testPopup,true);

            }     );

 

----------------------------------------------------------------------------
-------------------------------------------

 

 

This code displays the marker just fine.  When I click the marker, the
default popup comes up fine and closes upon hitting the "close" button.  The
real problem is that this only happens once.  After the first time, the
popup won't appear again upon click unless reloading the page.

 

Can someone help me get a handle on what's going on?

 

 

Thanks,
