Thanks percy. No, I hadn't thought of that. OpenLayers always gives me the impression of one layer at a time, and doesn't usually include a layer list that you can check on/off. However, I'm sure with some thinking on WMS services with transparent backgrounds vs TMS layer backgrounds, I might be able to come up with something. I'll look through the examples at http://openlayers.org/dev/examples/. Thanks for the idea.
