[OpenLayers-Users] Selectfeature not firing

[Chris Green]

Alex

Can't really offer much more except that I observe that if I comment out
selectCtrl.activate(); then I can drag the map to a new position when the
cursor is over the feature on the vector layer delivered by WFS, but if the
selectctrl is activated then dragging the map does not work when the cursor
is in that position (but it does work if the cursor is anywhere else on the
map). So there seems to be some kind of conflict caused by this control.
Does this help?


Regards,



Chris

Chris,

Could you share a live example or more code demonstrating your problem ? 
The code you pasted below doesn't seem to have any issue.

Kind regards,

Alexandre
