I did this in the
redraw:
method of the panel.js itself with the following lines but it is a total
hack and only for my application:
var ctrlName = this.controls[i].CLASS_NAME.replace("OpenLayers.",
"").replace("Control.","");
var title = null;
if (ctrlName == "ZoomBox") {
title = "Zoom to Location";
};
if (title != null) {
element.title = title;
}
this.div.appendChild(element);
A title would be great as well as the ability to hide/show a control.
My understanding is that this title attribute is only good in IE.
