[Users] vector search difficulty with grid selection model

[Robert Buckley]

Hi,

I have a search function in my app which follows this method...

1. enter search string in textbox
2. press search button -> which executes the search action in a form
3. the search layer (vector) is added to the map and tree and the feature 
results to a gridpanel
4. click on dataset in grid  -> the grid selectionmodel hightlights the dataset, 
and zooms to the selected feature extent.

The search works great the first time, but after the search is complete, I would 
like to remove the search layer from the map, close the gridpanel and continue 
using the app without the vector layer in the map. If I don´t remove the search 
layer, the vector layer stays on top of other layers meaning that the wms 
getFeatureInfo can´t be called.

if I call map.removeLayer(searchlayer)....the layer is removed, but all 
subsequent searches are not highlighted from the grid selection model.

Therefore I want to remove the layer in the map and the tree and somehow reset 
the selection model in the grid so that future search results can be added again 
and hightlighted in the grid´s selection model.

If you want to test it the url is here.

The code is written ( and badly commented) in the html source.


any help or hints would be great,

yours,

rob
