[OpenLayers-Users] Re: Mercator projected Images coordinate problem with layer

[shitake83]

Hi. I used to have this problem too, until i found a small workaround that
suited my needs.

var geographic = new OpenLayers.Projection("EPSG:4326");
var mercator = new OpenLayers.Projection("EPSG:900913");
var dortmund= new OpenLayers.LonLat(7.46, 51.51).transform(geographic,
mercator);

I setup the projection types in variables and then use the .transform method
to manipulate the "EPSG:4326" coordinates into "EPSG:900913- Mercator"
coordinates. This should work for you.


There is also a very neat explanation in the OL Docs.

Laterz.
