OpenLayers container position from lat/long

Question

Is it possible to get position inside the OpenLayers container from a lat/long point?

Google Maps has something like this:

var markerOffset = map.fromLatLngToDivPixel(marker.getLatLng());

Can I do the same thing in OpenLayers?

Answer 1

See the getPixelFromLonLat[1] method from map object.
