The key bits from example are: kmlHoverSelectControl = new OpenLayers.Control.SelectFeature(kmlLayers,{hover:true, highlightOnly: true, renderIntent: "temporary" }); kmlSelectControl = new OpenLayers.Control.SelectFeature(kmlLayers,{clickout: true}); kmlSelectControl.events.on({ "featurehighlighted": onKmlFeatureSelect, "featureunhighlighted": onKmlFeatureUnselect }); map.addControl(kmlHoverSelectControl); map.addControl(kmlSelectControl); kmlHoverSelectControl.activate(); kmlSelectControl.activate(); kmlLayers is array of layers (in this case kml). Order matters. HoverSelect control , the SelectControl.
With this, I highlight features as you mouse over, then select on click. -- Phil Scadden, Senior Scientist GNS Science Ltd 764 Cumberland St, Private Bag 1930, Dunedin, New Zealand Ph +64 3 4799663, fax +64 3 477 5232 Notice: This email and any attachments are confidential.
