[OpenLayers-Users] openlayers single file librarry problem

[Joanne Cook]

Hi Chris,

Thanks for that- adding the stylesheet link and the OpenLayers.ImgPath worked a treat (rather than risking over-writing the original OpenLayers.js file).

However, it can't find the image folder or the theme folder, so I don't have the navigation elements, and firebug shows me that it's looking for them in the root folder /var/www, so /var/www/theme and /var/www/img. The same happens if I change the build path to /var/www/mapfish/client/mfbase/openlayers/lib/openlayers_sfl.js.

OpenLayers can only automatically find images and theme if the
OpenLayers file is *named* OpenLayers.js. The theme can be included
manually (via a <link rel="stylesheet"> to theme/default/style.css), and
the image path can be specified by setting OpenLayers.ImgPath.
