Hi all,
sorry, but I have stupid question. I'm trying to add print functionality in
my map. I found this code
http://trac.osgeo.org/openlayers/wiki/TileStitchingPrinting  but I am not
able to use it. As I understand, what I need is download Control version,
adding it to OpenLayers.js and than what? I'm not able to figure out, how to
implement it. Let suppose I have button "Print" and function printMap(){new
OpenLayers.Control.TileStitchPrinter();} on click. But this do nothing. What
I should write in this function? Should I download something else? I tried
to find some example, but without succes :(

1. Download the OL Control from mapsportal.org and add it to your map as usual. Be sure to set its options as documented at the top of its source code; mostly you'll want printUrl

So like this:

var PRINTER = new OpenLayers.Control.TileStitchPrinter({
    printUrl:'print.php'
});
map.addControl(PRINTER);


2. At some time later, when you have your map looking good, call:
   PRINTER.print();
This part, you would usually do via an attached onClick event on some hyperlink or button.

You can find a working example here:

And thanks for pointing out, that I didn't include sufficient documentation. I'll go in there and flesh it out right now.
