[ka-Map-users] Initial zoom and center point, plus xmloverlay icon issue

[Pg]

In order to properly initialize kaXmlOverlay you should wait for the
KAMAP_MAP_INITIALIZED event. So register an handler for that event

myKaMap.registerForEvent( KAMAP_MAP_INITIALIZED, null, mapInitializedHandler
);

and move the kaXmlOverlay init in the mapInitializedHandler() function.
(See the doc in the source).


For the bad icon rendering, if you are using the CVS version, the default
behaviour is to render icons with <canvas> or VML, in order to support
rotation.

To render icons in the old traditional way set the variable

 xmlOverlayUseCanvas = false;

before creating the overlay.

If this helps, please let me know which browser you're using.
