[OpenLayers-Users] How to convert a coordinate like 5383153.349692758 to 43.468243 ?

Sun Jun 21 05:35:06 EDT 2009

Hi all,
I have been fiddling with this way too long already, so I ask:

After changing the Click Event Example a bit I am getting coordinates like
this:

5383153.349692758      1323087.0961396247

Click Event Example: http://www.openlayers.org/dev/examples/click.html

However I need them like this:

43.468243    11.880172

Btw. same format as the coordinates in the "data.txt".

I think "All I DID" is changing from WMS to OSM Layers?
How to automatically convert?

Thanks.

Please find my code:

<head>
<title>map3</title>
    <style type="text/css">
        #map {	width: 90%;
		height: 90%;
		border: 1px solid black;}

    </style>

	<script type="text/javascript">
            OpenLayers.Control.Click =

                    'double': false,
                    'pixelTolerance': 0,
                    'stopSingle': false,

                    'stopDouble': false
                },

                initialize: function(options) {

                    );
                    OpenLayers.Control.prototype.initialize.apply(

			layerMapnik = new OpenLayers.Layer.OSM.Mapnik("Mapnik");

			var newl = new OpenLayers.Layer.Text( "text", {

			} );
			newl.events.register("loadend", newl, setExtent);
			map.addLayer(newl);
			map.setCenter(null, null);

			};
