styling controls

[Amit Kumar]

Hi, I was wondering if i can use jquery to style the map controls, instead of disabling the default controls and adding my own... DRY principal :P

You can do that using customControl

the approach on that page is to make each control myself... which isnt very DRY... i would like to just style the existing default controls

Unfortunately these controls are subject to change (in behaviour and appearance), so providing an API to style them isn't really feasible.

What exactly do you want to style?

Well, as you can see, today we changed the default styles. As I said above, it's not feasible to provide this. You should create your own custom controls.
