I have read the page and done some testing. I used just a single Google layer and the WMS definition from the OL examples to do some testing.
Observations: Attempting to load Google as base, WMS as overlay: - I do not get pink tiles, instead the Google layer seems to partially load but does not show up correctly - The layer switcher which I have defined at the end of my JS does not show up - I cannot seem to get an image URL the option is not given? It will only let me save/view my html document Commenting out map.addLayer(layer): - Correct me if i'm wrong but providing a layer is defined correctly, this should not affect the loading of the page, in fact it should fix the page if that layer is having problems - Result is the same as the above condition Commenting out WMS layer definition: - If I comment out this the page is fixed and the Google layer loads correctly - This leads me to believe that it is a javascript error? but I used both my original definition, (which worked correctly before under Fedora 7) and the OpenLayers examples to test with and both are giving the same error. - Other possible issues is that I primarily used OL 2.4 before but I swear that it worked under 2.5 but I may be wrong. Adding in Mapserver layer: - Calling a Mapserver layer works quite fine (which is what I'm using as my WMS) Cheers Brad On 14/12/2007, Christopher Schmidt <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > > On Fri, Dec 14, 2007 at 04:23:35PM +1100, Bradley McLain wrote: > > A styles parameter is not optional according to the WMS 1.1 spec, nor is > > it optional in MapServer 5.0.
