[OpenLayers-Users] Handler.Box units

[Puneet Kishor]

I am reusing the sample code from the Handler.Box documentation

	var control = new OpenLayers.Control();
	OpenLayers.Util.extend(control, {
		draw: function () {
			// this Handler.Box will intercept the shift-mousedown
			// before Control.MouseDefault gets to see it
			this.box = new OpenLayers.Handler.Box(
				control,
				{done: this.notice},
				{keyMask: OpenLayers.Handler.MOD_SHIFT}
			);
			this.box.activate();
		},
	
		notice: function (bounds) {
			OpenLayers.Console.userError("bounds: " + bounds);
			var bbox = bounds.transform(proj.google, proj.latlng).toBBOX();
			OpenLayers.Console.userError("bbox: " + bbox);
		}
	});
	
To my uneducated surprise, the bounds seem to be in pixels instead of my expected map projection, google, in this case. Am I mistaken in my assumption. How do I get the values in latlng?

On a related note: I am trying to create a capability where a user draws a rubber-band box which sends a query to the server which returns with a bunch of results, perhaps a maps as well. Is the above the right approach?
