Hi everyone!
I have the following challenge, and wondered if anyone could suggest a
workaorund...
My clear example is here:
http://ccviz.sli.unimelb.edu.au/testMaps3.html

I need to refresh a map image on request, my challenge is that this
image is given as a WMS service response from Geoserver (for ease in
testing, I put another image available on internet that refreshes
every minute, you can try it in your browser on separate window).
Geoserver, like this example, will always give the image the same name
(i.e. same url). That's why I can't use something like
 var url='http://www.meteorologica.info/lightning/lightning.jpg?rand='
+ Math.floor(Math.random() * 99999);
Which works, but geoserver, as per WMS specification, will always
serve a "[url]/wms.png" image.

I haven't found a way for google Maps to reload that image as a
GroundOverlay. I also tried with a kml with networklink
refreshInterval set. Again, because the kml produced by geoserver has
a link to that wms image (is a raster map). No matter how many new
javascript objects do I create, it seems that gmaps caches the same
image url to the same name, even if the actual image has changed or
the javascript object is new.

Just in case I tried with the previous google Maps, but same thing
happens (http://ccviz.sli.unimelb.edu.au/testMaps2.html)
I'll appreciate any suggestions, best regards,
Marcos
