I'd like to extend the original poster's question a little with a further constraint:
Trapping the click and getting lon/lat - no problem. However, I'd like to be able to do this while drawing on a vector layer. It appears that once drawing has started, the click event no longer fires or at least isn't being handled by the handler as defined in the solution to this original post. The myriad of events available to the layer don't appear to contain what I need either. Ideally, there would be a 'vertexadded' event that I could use as this is specifically what I'm looking to trap. Just to describe the scenario: I want to grab the xy each time a point is plotted, convert to lon/lat and then map.setCenter() on this new point so that I can plot a line without worrying about being able to see the whole terrain that I want to plot on all at once.
