[OpenLayers-Users] Given Bounds, Calculate Zoom

[Michael]

Sure!

     var trackBounds = new OpenLayers.Bounds(-127.5,39,-121.9,37); //an 
area off the coast of San Francisco that I care about
     . ..// make the map etc

     map.zoomToExtent(trackBounds, true);

Hmmm.  Wait a minute.  That is a little different than the function you 
are talking about.  I imagine that this one uses the one you are 
referencing, but that may call for confirmation.
