[OpenLayers-Users] How to iterate through waypoint coordinates.

[Juan Varela]

I have a gpx file that looks like this:

https://gist.github.com/trufa/6924353

I went through the OL track example (
http://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Openlayers_Track_example):

var lgpx = new OpenLayers.Layer.Vector("Lakeside cycle ride", {
strategies: [new OpenLayers.Strategy.Fixed()],
protocol: new OpenLayers.Protocol.HTTP({
 url: "around_lake.gpx",
format: new OpenLayers.Format.GPX()
}),
 style: {strokeColor: "green", strokeWidth: 5, strokeOpacity: 0.5},
projection: new OpenLayers.Projection("EPSG:4326")
});
map.addLayer(lgpx);

And the above code draws the route correctly, I just did that to test that
everything was working correctly.

My objective here to use OpenLayers to parse the gpx files and extract the
coordinates.

<wpt lon="15.428824518436" lat="47.071922203043"></wpt>
<wpt lon="15.424404237975" lat="47.071366853467"></wpt>
<wpt lon="15.423460100401" lat="47.068677710511"></wpt>
<wpt lon="15.427107904664" lat="47.068970015231"></wpt>
<wpt lon="15.428781603085" lat="47.070957644813"></wpt>
<wpt lon="15.430755708927" lat="47.071016103385"></wpt>
<wpt lon="15.430326555481" lat="47.072068346707"></wpt>
<wpt lon="15.431141947021" lat="47.072068346707"></wpt>
<wpt lon="15.430884454953" lat="47.074114315917"></wpt>

That I need to feed to a  custom made function.

I've been trying all sort of things unsuccessfully.

>From the docs:
http://dev.openlayers.org/docs/files/OpenLayers/Format/GPX-js.html

The the extractWaypoints seems to be what I need.

I tried:

format: new OpenLayers.Format.GPX(
    {
         extractWaypoints: true
    }
)


But when I do console.log(lgpx) I get a HUGE object where I can't even find
where the coord are so, so I wouldn't even know how to loop it.

To sum up, I would need an array (or something) with the coordinates of the
waypoints in the gpx files which sounds simple enough but I can't manage it.

Thanks in advance!
