[OpenLayers-Users] scaleline in lon/lat projection

[Jan]

Strange. Now it works, but only with OSM layer (which is in Spherical
Mercator) and it does not work when I use WGS-based layer (e.g. "
http://labs.metacarta.com/wms/vmap0") - in this case scaleline changes
between 1000 and 10000 km when I drag a map towards poles.
