[OpenLayers-Users] Modify object other then from muse click

[Alexandre Dube]

Poul,

you already keep track of your feature when selecting it with your 
SelectFeature control :

selectedfeature = feature;

so you don't need to make any loop (you should also deactivate the 
SelectFeature control too and do the opposite when your checkbox is 
unchecked):


if (document.getElementById('checkbox_editable').checked==true)
			{	
				alert("Watch out!!!");
				drawControls["chooseobject"].unselect(selectedfeature);
				drawControls["chooseobject"].deactivate();

                                drawControls["modify_wfs_layer"].selectControl.select(selectedfeature);
				drawControls["modify_wfs_layer"].activate();				
				....
			}
else {
    // do the opposite...
}

Regards,

Alexandre
