[OpenLayers-Users] Scale text outside the map

[Andris Ratas]

You don't even need a scale control for that. Just register with "zoomend" event of your map object and add the scale to any div element you need.
 
map.events.register("zoomend", map, function () {
document.getElementById('scale_div').innerHTML = map.getScale().toFixed(0);
});

Betreff: [OpenLayers-Users] Scale text outside the map
 
Hello list,
 
I have another question. Perhaps somebody can help me.
I try to realise a Sclae text. It should be something like this 1:25000. For this I use the Scale Control.
 
var scale = new OpenLayers.Control.Scale({
            div: document.getElementById("kartenElemente")
});
                                   
map.addControl(scale);
 
I want to place the Scaletext outside the map. For this I use the div Option. But it doesn't work. Can somebody please help me? Is there a possibility to place the control outside the map in an extra div?
 
Thank you a lot for your help.
 
Greetings
Hanno Rahn
