[GIS] Creating static popup in OpenLayers that contains HTML content

htmlopenlayers-2

I would like to create a static popup using openLayers 2.11 which is always in the lower-right corner of the screen and appears on map load. The idea behind this is to have a logo for my school always appear. I already have a marker layer setup. Maybe I am approaching this incorrectly.

I have tried using some of the examples on the OpenLayers website regarding anchored popups with no luck.

The contents of the popup are as follows:

    <div id="cube" style="width: 100%; height: 100%; background-color-#575757;">
    <link rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" href="css/cube.css">
    <div class="wrap">
<div class="cube">
    <div class="front">front</div>
    <div class="back">back</div>
    <div class="top">top</div>
    <div class="bottom">bottom</div>
    <div class="left">left</div>
    <div class="right">right</div>
</div>
  </div>

Best Answer

If the position of logo is static and not feature-dependent, then you don't need a popup. You can use an ordinary div element positioned over the map (just make sure that the CSS z-index is high enough, more than 1000), or put the HTML content in markers layer 'attribution' property and add the following CSS rule:

.olControlAttribution {
    right: 0px;
    bottom: 0px;
}

to place the content in lower-right corner of the map.
