Instances of OpenLayers.Map are interactive maps embedded in a web page. Create a new map with the OpenLayers.Map constructor.
On their own maps do not provide much functionality. To extend a map it’s necessary to add controls (OpenLayers.Control) and layers (OpenLayers.Layer) to the map.

{Array(String)} Supported application event types. Register a listener for a particular event with the following syntax:
map.events.register(type, obj, listener);
Listeners will be called with a reference to an event object. The properties of this event depends on exactly what happened.
{Boolean} For a base layer that supports it, allow the map resolution to be set to a value between one of the values in the resolutions array. Default is false.
When fractionalZoom is set to true, it is possible to zoom to an arbitrary extent. This requires a base layer from a source that supports requests for arbitrary extents (i.e. not cached tiles on a regular lattice). This means that fractionalZoom will not work with commercial layers (Google, Yahoo, VE), layers using TileCache, or any other pre-cached data sources.
If you are using fractionalZoom, then you should also use getResolutionForZoom instead of layer.resolutions[zoom] as the former works for non-integer zoom levels.
{OpenLayers.Events} An events object that handles all events on the map
{Boolean} Allow the map to function with “overlays” only. Defaults to false. If true, the lowest layer in the draw order will act as the base layer. In addition, if set to true, all layers will have isBaseLayer set to false when they are added to the map.
If you set map.allOverlays to true, then you cannot use map.setBaseLayer or layer.setIsBaseLayer. With allOverlays true, the lowest layer in the draw layer is the base layer. So, to change the base layer, use setLayerIndex or raiseLayer to set the layer index to 0.
{DOMElement|String} The element that contains the map (or an id for that element). If the OpenLayers.Map constructor is called with two arguments, this should be provided as the first argument. Alternatively, the map constructor can be called with the options object as the only argument. In this case (one argument), a div property may or may not be provided. If the div property is not provided, the map can be rendered to a container later using the render method.
Note: If you calling render after map construction, do not use maxResolution auto. Instead, divide your maxExtent by your maximum expected dimension.
{OpenLayers.Size} Size of the main div (this.div)
{OpenLayers.LonLat} The lonlat at which the later container was re-initialized (on-zoom)
{Array(OpenLayers.Layer)} Ordered list of layers in the map
{Array(OpenLayers.Control)} List of controls associated with the map.
If not provided in the map options at construction, the map will be given the following controls by default:
{Array(OpenLayers.Popup)} List of popups associated with the map
{OpenLayers.Layer} The currently selected base layer. This determines min/max zoom level, projection, etc.
{OpenLayers.LonLat} The current center of the map
{String} Used to store a unique identifier that changes when the map view changes. viewRequestID should be used when adding data asynchronously to the map: viewRequestID is incremented when you initiate your request (right now during changing of baselayers and changing of zooms). It is stored here in the map and also in the data that will be coming back asynchronously. Before displaying this data on request completion, we check that the viewRequestID of the data is still the same as that of the map. Fix for #480
{OpenLayers.Size} Set in the map options to override the default tile size for this map.
{OpenLayers.Bounds} The maximum extent for the map. Defaults to the whole world in decimal degrees (-180, -90, 180, 90). Specify a different extent in the map options if you are not using a geographic projection and displaying the whole world.
{OpenLayers.Bounds} Limit map navigation to this extent where possible. If a non-null restrictedExtent is set, panning will be restricted to the given bounds. In addition, zooming to a resolution that displays more than the restricted extent will center the map on the restricted extent. If you wish to limit the zoom level or resolution, use maxResolution.
{OpenLayers.Projection} Requires proj4js support.Projection used by several controls to display data to user. If this property is set, it will be set on any control which has a null displayProjection property at the time the control is added to the map.
{Object} If set as an option at construction, the eventListeners object will be registered with OpenLayers.Events.on. Object structure must be a listeners object as shown in the example for the events.on method.
{OpenLayers.Bounds} Outside margin of the popup. Used to prevent the popup from getting too close to the map border.
Constructor for a new OpenLayers.Map instance. There are two possible ways to call the map constructor. See the examples below.
div | {String} Id of an element in your page that will contain the map. May be omitted if the div option is provided or if you intend to use render later. |
options | {Object} Optional object with properties to tag onto the map. |
// create a map with default options in an element with the id "map1" var map = new OpenLayers.Map("map1"); // create a map with non-default options in an element with id "map2" var options = { maxExtent: new OpenLayers.Bounds(-200000, -200000, 200000, 200000), maxResolution: 156543, units: 'm', projection: "EPSG:41001" }; var map = new OpenLayers.Map("map2", options);
Examples (method two | single argument): |
// create a map with non-default options var map = new OpenLayers.Map({ div: "map_id", maxExtent: new OpenLayers.Bounds(-200000, -200000, 200000, 200000), maxResolution: 156543, units: 'm', projection: "EPSG:41001" }); // create a map without a reference to a container - call render later var map = new OpenLayers.Map({ maxExtent: new OpenLayers.Bounds(-200000, -200000, 200000, 200000), maxResolution: 156543, units: 'm', projection: "EPSG:41001" });

removeLayer: function( layer, setNewBaseLayer )
Removes a layer from the map by removing its visual element (the layer.div property), then removing it from the map’s internal list of layers, setting the layer’s map property to null.
a “removelayer” event is triggered.
very worthy of mention is that simply removing a layer from a map will not cause the removal of any popups which may have been created by the layer. this is due to the fact that it was decided at some point that popups would not belong to layers. thus there is no way for us to know here to which layer the popup belongs.
A simple solution to this is simply to call destroy() on the layer. the default OpenLayers.Layer class’s destroy() function automatically takes care to remove itself from whatever map it has been attached to.
The correct solution is for the layer itself to register an event-handler on “removelayer” and when it is called, if it recognizes itself as the layer being removed, then it cycles through its own personal list of popups, removing them from the map.
