[OpenLayers-Users] Problem with calling default mouse down handler (2.4)

[Pierre GIRAUD]

If you are currently using the 2.4 version I advice you to have a look
at examples/click.html
That way you'll be able to register a "click" event on the map and do
anything you with a callback.

However, you might prefer to have no default controls activated on the
map (http://trac.openlayers.org/wiki/FrequentlyAskedQuestions#HowdoImakeanOpenLayersmapwithoutanycontrols)
and then create yours by creating a control that inherits from
OpenLayers.Control or extends it (examples/custom-controls.html).

I'm not sure this answers your questions but I hope this helps.

Regards

Pierre
