[OpenLayers-Users] Externally toggle a marker's popup

[Alan Boudreault]

Hi Alex,

If i assume that your popup is displayed when you click on your marker,

marker.events.register("mousedown", feature, markerClick);

you could keep an global array of all your features and do the same 
thing that in your markerClick function. ( aFeatures[i].popup.toggle(); )
