[OpenLayers-Users] Correct way to replace the layers in a map with a completely new set?

[Frank Broniewski]

Hi,

how do you "destroy" the layers? Do you use map.removeLayer()? You could 
add the new baselayer first and then remove the old ones. But without 
some example code which shows the problem it is difficult to help you ...
