[OpenLayers-Users] MousePosition Control

[Mike Quentel]

Also, instead of modifying style.css, one can explicitly change the styles in the page that the map will appear via style tags, like this:

<link rel="stylesheet" href="http://www.openlayers.org/dev/theme/default/style.css" type="text/css" />
<style type="text/css">
#mapDiv {
  width: 600px;
  height: 450px;
  border: 1px solid black;
  background-color: red;
}
div.olControlMousePosition {
  background-color: #ffffff;
  font-size: smaller;
  font-weight: bold;
}
.olControlScale {
  background-color: #ffffff;
  font-size: smaller;
  font-weight: bold;
}
</style>


That way, one can reference the style.css source for OpenLayers at the OpenLayers web site, without having to host the style.css on your server.  This is good for when all you want to modify is just a few things, like the mouse position control appearance.  Just remember to reference both the link tag as well as your style tags (see above example; include the link tag reference to the style.css, as well as your style tags).  

In the above example, #mapDiv refers to the div where the map will appear.

Hi Francesca,

I have tested it and it works for me. I modified the
div.olControlMousePosition class on the style.css

Are you changing that class? What is your folder structure? And the
browser you are testing? Maybe the css is not being referenced, this
information could be useful.

Hope this helps
