[Users] SOLVED (apparently)! GeoExt popup moves anchor when html is updated

[David Miller]

Hi list!

After looking at yet another forum thread which was possibly related to my
problem, I discovered that if I first hide the popup after retrieving the
information from the server, then call the body.update with the retrieved
information, then show the popup, the popup window expands up and the
anchors stays were I clicked on the map. So in the getPopupText(loc)
function, I do this instead:

// set the popup text information with ExtJS

popup.hide();
popup.body.update(wincontent);
popup.show();

Not sure why I need the second show as there's a show in the popup function.
Whatever works I guess. Amazing... searched for a few days on this one as
well as posted to OL and GeoExt forums. Have to copy this solution to the
other forums.

Well, now to Tabs. Hope not, but might be back. Thanks for everyone's times
and something to keep in mind here for these GeoExt popups.
