RE: [mapserver-users] Map background color using OL/WMS
Hi Paul,
Maybe late to the show, but another strategy would be to explicitly state the
bgcolor in the WMS request that OpenLayers composes like so:
var wmsmap = new OpenLayers.Layer.WMS(
Service name,
url,
{
width: '600',
height: '512',
srs: 'EPSG:28992',
layers: 'Dutch provinces',
styles: '',
format: 'image/png',
bgcolor: '0x8FCAE7'
},
{
singleTile: true,
ratio: 1,
attribution: 'copy; 2009 Kadaster',
visibility: true,
isBaseLayer: true
}
);
Hope someone can benefit from this as well.
Cheers,
Edward

Re: [mapserver-users] Map background color using OL/WMS
Thanks for help...
I changed the background in Openlayers CSS config:
div.olMap {
background-color: #e6fefe;
}

But how can I change the backround in Client Side?
Just find the Id of your DIV containing yout map and change the backgound
Color. Maybe there is in the Styles Secion someting like
style
#map {
width: 800px;
height: 500px;
float: left;
border: 1px solid #ccc;
}
[...]
/style
Just add background-color:#FF like
style
#map {
width: 800px;
height: 500px;
float: left;
border: 1px solid #ccc;
background-color:#FF
}
[...]
/style

Thanks Jeff... But do you know how change map background ? Using Mapscript IMAGECOLOR works fine... With CGI/WMS/OL i cant get that to work...

Paul Just a guess - I think you have to change the backround of your Map in the Client Side. If you don't have only one Layer, your wms Layers should be transparent. And as wms serves only Layers, there is no way to change the backgroundcolor on Server Side. But maybe I'm wrong Thomasch ___ mapserver-users mailing list mapserver-users@lists.osgeo.org http://lists.osgeo.org/mailman/listinfo/mapserver-users

RE: [mapserver-users] Map background color using OL/WMS
If you really needed to set a background color, you could probably create an image of that color, georeference it to have an extent that matches your map extent and then set layer status to default for both of your layers. It still may be possible for someone to send a WMS to request only your data layer. Adding this raster layer will also incur some resources for processing. Whether it is significant or not, I don't know. To help you figure out the best solution, tell us what your use case is. It is likely that someone else has had a similar need. David.
