I'm going to clarify my problem a little bit. What I'm trying to do is take a parameter from the user (parameter is used to uniquely identify a property on the map), find the location of that property, and center the map on it.
I figured the easiest way to do this would be to give each property an X and Y feature (which I did using http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tWfLoqNu3Bo this tutorial ). I query GeoServer, get the X and Y coordinates that go with that property, and then use the map.setCenter() function to zoom in on it. Unfortunately, this isn't working for me. The map ends up centering somewhere completely wrong. It seems to be almost random where the map ends up. I'm not sure, but I think it might have something to do with the projection. I have Google maps as my base layer (EPSG:900913), and i believe my shapefile is EPSG:4326. Also, once I get my map centering on the property, I would like to have it highlight the property as well. Not sure where to even start for that one, so any guidance would be appreciated. -- View this message in context: http://n2.nabble.com/Zoom-to-feature-and-highlight-it-tp3472183p3479210.html Sent from the OpenLayers Users mailing list archive at Nabble.com. _______________________________________________ Users mailing list Users@openlayers.org http://openlayers.org/mailman/listinfo/users
