Hi Eric Thanks for your suggestion but unfortunately it doesn't help - I tried to destroy the SelectFeature Control (testing if null first) before destroying the vector layer, but there was no change to the problem - I still get 'zIndex is null' errors each of the even number of times that I call

Hi, Thanks for your reply. So if I draw a polygon the how can I get some information about the features covered by the polygon. Atleast the feature name or the lonlat so that using the lonlat I am able to make a GFI request. Thanks. -- View this message in context:
