Hi,

Thanks all for the fast replies!

I tried you suggestion of using Vector layers to display markers and it
worked perfectly. Also the shadows are great. After having all of my markers
on a Vector layer, the Cluster strategy worked.

Thanks again.

Hi...so you just use vector layer with points that represents
markers...i think this might be usefull to you:

var style= new OpenLayers.Style({
                externalGraphic: "${getIcon}",
                graphicWidth:"${getSize}",
                graphicHeight:"${getSize}",
                graphicOpacity:0.90,
                cursor:'pointer'
               ...
               ...
     }, {
        context: {
          getSize: function(feature) {
                        return __getClusterIconSize(feature);
        },
                  getIcon: function(feature){
                        return __getClusterIcon(feature);
                }
                }
     });

cheers!
