[OpenLayers-Users] Add custom attribute for vector feature

[Boris T.]

Hi List,

I worte a function which is loading a JSON string via AJAX and creating
markers from the received values (x, y, icon, angle, etc.). This is working
quite well.

What I'm struggling with is that each marker should have a popup with a
description (name, id and other values from the JSON data).

I created a onFeatureSelect function to create the popup

function onFeatureSelect(feature) {
            	selectedFeature = feature;
		var content = feature.attributes.description + feature.attribute.name +
... ;
        	    popup = new OpenLayers.Popup.FramedCloud(null, 
							feature.geometry.getBounds().getCenterLonLat(),
							new OpenLayers.Size(150,300),
							content,
							null, true, function() {onPopupClose(feature)});
				feature.popup = popup;
				feature.attributes.static=true;
      		    feature.attributes.poppedup=true;
            	map.addPopup(popup);
}

What attributes are available for a geometry point? x, y, angel?
Can I create a custom feature.attribute?
Or is there a more accurate way to do that?


Thanks for you help!
Boris
