[OpenLayers-Users] Help with creating custom controls

[Paul Spencer]

Vish,

The easiest way to create a custom control is to find an existing  
control that does something close to what you want (thinking in terms  
of interaction with the user) and modify it appropriately by changing  
the control name throughout the code, and then implementing your query  
capability.

I just had a quick look in the wiki and there are no details on  
creating a custom control.  You may find some interesting tidbits here:
