[Users] How to add register to Action

Hi all,

Maybe I didn't explain well.

My idea is to have a Info button that activates the option to get info from a wfs layer. If I didn't, the wfsLayer.events.on, mousedown event disables buttons from toogle bar (zoom in, zoom out, pan, etc.). Instead of, I would add the mentioned "Info" button, and when user activates, then, click over the wfs layer (using mousedown event from wfslayer) show several attributes from wfs request (this works fine).

Sorry for bad first email.

You don't to implement your own mousedown event listener or toggleHandler 
when using a GeoExt.Action in a toolbar.
GeoExt.Action will default to a button and already has handlers for 
activating/decativating controls.

You really want to use a real control not the OpenLayers.Control base class. 
If you need to build your own control then you should subclass the 
OpenLayers.Control class and then use your own subclass. Because of the way 
you have written the code below, it is highly doubtful that 'this' refers to 
what you want and there is probably no handleMousedown function in the 
object 'this' refers to. Other than that, this section looks ok:
        action = new GeoExt.Action({
            control: new OpenLayers.Control({eventListeners: {"mousedown": 
this.handleMousedown}}),
            tooltip: 'Info',
            map: map,
            iconCls: 'drawpolygon',
            toggleGroup: 'map'
        });

You don't need to re-add the 'mousedown' event listener, so this section is 
not needed:
        action.control.events.on({
           "mousedown": handleMousedown
        });

Next, I don't know what you are doing with the 'actions' array that you are 
pushing the newly created 'action' into. I'm going to assume that you are 
using the 'actions' array as a value for the map panel's tbar config 
property:
        actions.push(action);

Hope that helps
