I am using Jquery mobile along with OpenLayers mobile.

I want to give users the ability to draw features like lines and polygons. I would also like to give them the ability to "write" an annotation and place the text at a point on the map.

Does anyone have a small example of how to add text to the map?

Thanks!

Use some JavaScript and HTML text input to achieve the text input. To save your annotations you can try exporting and importing geojson You can set text on a map marker: marker.icon.imageDiv.title = 'yourTitleHere';
