[OpenLayers-Users] Problem adding a new property to a control

[Javier Galán]

Hi all

I'm trying something simple but doesn't work. I want to add a new property
to the scale control, for allow to choose between abbreviate or not the
scale.

What I did is:

OpenLayers.Control.Scale = OpenLayers.Class(OpenLayers.Control, {

  [...]
    /**
    * Property: abreviate
    * modificantion  for abreviate or not the scale value
    * {Boolean}
    * default : false
    */
   abbreviate: false,

   [...]

 /**
     * Method: updateScale
     */
    updateScale: function() {
        var scale = this.map.getScale();
        if (!scale) {
            return;
        }

        if (this.abbreviate){
        if (scale >= 9500 && scale <= 950000) {
            scale = Math.round(scale / 1000) + "K";
        } else if (scale >= 950000) {
            scale = Math.round(scale / 1000000) + "M";
        } else {
            scale = Math.round(scale);
        }
        }else{
        scale = Math.round(scale);
    }

    this.element.innerHTML = OpenLayers.i18n("scale", {'scaleDenom':scale});
    },
[...]

It works fine until I call the scale control with the property

map.addControl(new OpenLayers.Control.Scale({'abbreviate':true}));

Anybody colud sayme what I'm doing wrong.

Thank's in advance
