[OpenLayers-Users] OpenLayers.Control.SelectFeature with highlight, toggle

[Christian Niemitz-Rossant]

Hi Eric,
after filing the ticket

http://trac.openlayers.org/ticket/2812

I got a message from Ilias, because he had to deal with the same
problem. His solution to add to the selectCtrl an onUnselect and in this
function to call

highlightCtrl.unhighlight(feature);

works fine for me. The two controls interfere and by calling a function
of one in the other solves the problem. Anyway I think that a solution
of only one control for highlight and select might be valuable, or?

Otherwise an example for this problem should be under examples and I
would be happy to provide it.

Kind regards,
Christian
