Hi All,

I have been playing with the new Bing tiles layer in the OpenLayers trunk, and 
can get it to work for standard layers, but I was wondering if it will ever be 
possible to access the Ordnance Survey tiles that are available in Bing in the 
UK through this method? I have tried supplying the type "ordnanceSurvey" (which 
I got through trawling the code on the main Bing maps site) but this returns a 
blank image. I see from 
http://social.msdn.microsoft.com/Forums/en-US/vemapcontroldev/thread/a5f667ab-4472-4506-a1ce-8af6d62165bb/
that the Ordnance Survey layers are custom tile layers, and as such, in Bing 
they would be added using a different approach 
(http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/bb429629.aspx).

I have also tried accessing the tiles using the older virtualEarth layer type 
(version 6.3 of the api, with the en-GB culture parameter) but I'm not having 
much luck with that either (also returns a blank image).

Is this even feasible, and if so would anyone be prepared to help me work 
through any code modifications (happy to have a go, with someone to hold my 
hand)

Thanks

Jo
