Just to be clear to other users, who might not be programmers, let me add this:

Look at this line:

  controls.disableZoomWheel();

It should be:

  controls[i].disableZoomWheel();

PS: Also make sure your variable are all the same case. ( for var i=0, …)

I had to add the code for removing the zoomWheel at the end, after adding all other controls to the map. It seems that other controls are adding NavigationControl too.

var navCtrls = map.getControlsByClass(‘OpenLayers.Control.Navigation’);
for (var i = 0; i < navCtrls.length; i++) {
navCtrls[i].disableZoomWheel();
}

I needed to disable all controls for an OpenLayers google map without much success, but the way to do it seems to be creating the map with an empty control array like so:

map = new OpenLayers.Map(“divMap”, { controls: [] })

You could then add any specific controls required.

Strange enough but it doesn’t work for me! I tried with that code before and it wasn’t working again. After applying the code I mention in the code everything was just fine.

You should use the following code to disable the mouse’s scoll wheel:

var movemap = new OpenLayers.Control.Navigation({zoomWheelEnabled : false});

zoomWheelEnabled is not a JS sztring and it works like a charm …

Yes I’m sure it’s working and I see it working on your site! I don’t understand where the problem is!? If you have any doubt, please provide some source code and I’ll be glad to help!

Are you sure that is correct?

I put your code in my map, and the zoom wheel is always enabled!
