The map now works with IE too. This demo borrows from some of the work done by the mapfish project (www.mapfish.org). Just look at their complex layout example and you'll see similarities. This first demo can have a significant load time. To improve that you can use gzip compression on the server side. The Ext and openlayers libraries are reduced in size about 4 times. In addition you can take advantage of Ext X-Types for lazy loading of widgets in complex layouts. Ian, thanks for the comment, the link has been updated. The map now works with IE too.

I'm interested in the load-delay while Ext & Openlayers load, & would be grateful for a chance to see your "live" application. cheers, Ian. Hi,
