Your code crashes on this line:

because there is no element with id="sid".
Perhaps you intended to store the contents of the Javascript "sid"

To clarify, "geocoding" usually describes a process where some service

coordinates.

Each tile layer on the map has it's own getTileUrl() method.
See the documentation here:

Maybe you could re-write that method for each tile layer used on your
