[OpenLayers-Users] best way to show many static points

[Toby Reinicke]

Hey,

So what's the problem with tiles? Server side stuff is your only choice really. Not going to load those points into a browser.

If its tiles you don't like you can always call the openlayers layer as a single tile? Slow down the rendering a bit but will just create the one image...
