Note: I know there's another question similar to this but it hasn't been answered and I need to know how mixed projections can be dealt with with GeoJSON and OSM.
I'm so confused. I was using the OSMDroid API on Android for mapping and wanted to replicate it using OpenLayers and GeoExt, but I've got a projection problem with including GeoJSON nodes and action events.
My tile set is OSM based, and is hosted on the same Web server as this HTML/JS. See it all below. I realize my boundaries aren't working, and my projections might be completely wrong. I've been testing different combinations.
The problem is my map displays correctly and is centered fine. However:
My GeoJSON feature nodes are way off the map. They're in a different projection long/lat, but I don't know how to set or convert GeoJSON long/lat to the current map projection.
My mapCtrl doesn't work. When I click it the lonlat is another projection (the OSM projection coords) and I can't seem to convert them)
Any tips on how extent/bounds actually work would be greatly appreciated
Can someone please help with a bit of projection advice? Sigh... I'm not patient enough for this.
Here's my full JS, as is:
var mapPanel, store, gridPanel, mainPanel, nodePop, mapPop;
Ext.onReady(function() {
var map, mapLayer, vecLayer;
var lon = -70.885610;
var lat = 38.345822;
var zoom = 17;
var maxZoom = 18;
var toProjection = new OpenLayers.Projection("EPSG:4326");
var fromProjection = new OpenLayers.Projection("EPSG:900913");
var extent = new OpenLayers.Bounds(-1.32,51.71,-1.18,51.80).transform(fromProjection, toProjection);
// Setup the node layer feature store and push it all into a vector layer
vecLayer = new OpenLayers.Layer.Vector("vector");

map.setCenter(lonLat, zoom);
// Attach all the event driven stuff here...
// Create a node selection pop up control
function nodeAction(feature) {
nodePop = new GeoExt.Popup({

location: feature,

html: "",

});
nodePop.on({
close: function() {

};
// Attach the pop to node/feature selection events

}
});
// Create map selection pop up control
function mapAction(lonlat) {

var mapCtrl = new OpenLayers.Control.Click({

var lonlat = mapPanel.map.getLonLatFromViewPortPx(evt.xy);
lonlat.transform(new OpenLayers.Projection("EPSG:4326"), mapPanel.map.getProjectionObject());
//.transform(new OpenLayers.Projection("EPSG:4326"), map.getProjectionObject());

}
});
mapPanel.map.addControl(mapCtrl);
mapCtrl.activate();
});
// A control to handle user clicks on the map
OpenLayers.Control.Click = OpenLayers.Class(

Here's the GeoJSON I'm using:

"name": "Node0",
"status": "Active",
"externalGraphic": "img/node2.png",
"graphicHeight": 75, "graphicWidth": 75
},
"id": 100
},
{
"geometry": {
