<http://dl.dropbox.com/u/11896898/oahu%20exmaple.jpg> The picture included is a schematic of my map (divided into 512 piece tiles) at the highest zoom. The purple shaded areas are tiles which contain only water. To reduce bandwidth, I would like to have all of those tiles load a single default image instead. I can't do a check inside my getTileUrl function to see if the tile is a purple tile, as they don't follow a pattern easy to check (hence the switch statement). Hence my problem.
I did a search on these forums and someone had a similar issue. They solved it by having the server return a different image via the 404 error protocol. I am not a webmaster, nor do I have a vast knowledge of internet re-directs and what-not. My issue with the 404 error is that the map would be on the same server as the rest of the site. So if someone were to 404 while browsing the site, they would be redirected to the default tile, would they not? I am really hoping there is a way to do this within the javascript code.
