[OpenLayers-Users] Calling a feature popup from within a cluster popup

[James Morley]

Thanks Toby, that makes sense, I'll give it a try (this is all rather new
to me so I'm learning as I go!)

The second point you mention is exactly right, and one of the reasons I
want to do this. It's quite common for Flickr users to just drag a whole
batch of images onto one location and hence they all get the same geotags
and never de-cluster. Currently the logic in my code says if there are less
than 20 placemarks show a list of all the images, but if there are more
than 20 then zoom in (in the hope they will split), but if you get to level
18 and there are still more than 20 then display them all anyway.
