[OpenLayers-Users] [OpenLayers-Dev] New, sexy, popups -- I need your help! -- GIMP/Inkscape users?

[Erik Uzureau]

Hi Rupert,

A big, continued, thanks! for working with these new popups. It is a
big help to have someone
trying them out.

The reason you are having error [2] is because you actually need to
apply some changes to other
core OpenLayers classes in order to get the full functionality of the
new popups.

This morning I sat down and updated the sandbox to the latest from
trunk and then created a new
patch file[a] so that you can easily get up to speed.

You should be able to just download that patch file and apply it to
your version of OL with no problems.
Let me know if you encounter any issues, I am glad to help with this.

Erik
