I have three kml layers in a map: polygons, lines, points. The map is modified from the mobile-wms-vienna example. I have changed the layers, and changed the "Labels" button to alter the opacity on the polygon layer. To ensure that all features can be seen I need set z-indexing.
However I would also like to be able to display a pop-up on the polygon layer, which is set as the lowest. I do not want to see popups from lines or points. (Points can have labels, lines do not need labeling). I have read many posts about the problems with select on multiple layers, but could not find a solution to how to make anything selectable when z-indexing is set.
Is there a way to do this? Preferably draw the layers in the order they are added to the map. Or a label layer that moves with the map and zoom changes? Unfortunately, kml polygon labels are fixed to a point and so might disappear when the map is moved or zoomed in.
The entire map code is given below, as I am not sure if there is something else in my map that is affecting this behaviour.

The closest answer that may solve my problem is here, but I could not understand how to use the solutions, and after many attempts at putting code in different places, I gave up.
