Our institution uses Geoserver on a daily basis for serving map layers. We are 
also using Geoserver/Geonode/Wordpress in development aid projects in different 
countries(http://mapa.meioambiente.tl/). The institution I work at is very 
happy with Geoserver.

This time, rather than asking a question I would like to present a small tool 
which works "on top" of geoserver.

Presenting information online using wordpress poses problems when you want to 
dynamically retrieve a list of layers. I recently made a php-script which 
easily lends itself to iframe-use from within WordPress. It makes an overview 
map using openlayers, and it lists the map layers with thumbnail maps and key 
layer information from Geoserver. However - I guess that:


*         Better solutions are available elsewhere

*         The code I wrote can be more efficient

*         It can easily be ported to other platforms

I wrote a post about this on my blog 
(www.mindland.com<http://www.mindland.com>). The code is available on github 
(https://github.com/ragnvald/wms_tools/tree/master/php_scripts/wms_info). 
Comments and further developments/suggestions are most welcome.

Cheers!
