Hi, the API does not allow you to customize the ZoomBox control this way. But you can globally override the Drag handler's documentDrag property (see http://dev.openlayers.org/releases/OpenLayers-2.10/doc/apidocs/files/OpenLayers/Handler/Drag-js.html#OpenLayers.Handler.Drag.documentDrag) by executing the following before you create your map:
OpenLayers.Handler.Drag.prototype.documentDrag = true; Note that this will affect everything that involves dragging, e.g. also drag-panning the map, modifying geometry vertices etc. Andreas.
