[OpenLayers-Users] How to replace country color with image ?

[Jerome Freyre]

Hi Jan,

I search for a solution but without success... I tried some scripts  
but it was the same result... nothing!

I think it is not possible to define a background picture for a  
polygon but only for features like points...

And unfortunately, I have no other options for now ...

Best regards,
Jérome
