[OpenLayers-Users] Vector Layer on Chrome weirdness

[William DePalo]

Hi,

A couple of days ago I asked why clicking on a line string feature in a 
KML layer displayed in the Chrome browser would not raise an event even 
though the same code works fine in Firefox, IE, Safari and Opera.

Today I found that the problem is related to the presence of this line

OpenLayers.Layer.Vector.prototype.renderers = ["SVG2", "VML", "Canvas"];

If I omit the line then I get the event. If it is present, I don't.

So, I'm happy to leave the line out and let the browser choose the 
render method and forego the performance gain which I thought the line 
brought if it means everything will work as expected.

Is this a bug or should I do something differently? That is should I be 
worried about things breaking with v2.12?

Thanks for any info.

Regards,
Will

P.S. I'm not sure it is helpful but I can tell you that with the line 
present the code jumps from line 205 in Handler.js to something that 
handles panning the map (somewhere in either DragPan.js or Drag.js) 
where the event is apparently stifled before it gets to the 
SelectFeature control.
