[mapguide-users] Serving Tiled Maps directly via apache

I have added a page to the wiki explaining how to serve mapguide tiled
maps directly by Apache
and an updated Openlayers Mapguide.js which then can access the
exposed tile cache

I have gone into some more detail on my blog
http://zacster.blogspot.com/2008/07/serving-mapguide-tiles-via-apache.html

Sample tiles and directions
http://trac.osgeo.org/mapguide/wiki/CodeSamples/Tiles/ServingTilesViaHttp

Thanks to Jason for the initial idea and for extending the php code to
use the API rather than
just redirecting to the mapagent.

This is useful as it adds cache headers to the tiles which means you
can use a proxy server to
reduce load on your mapguide server.

Don't expect to see much of a difference unless your server is under a
decent load, Mapguide is
pretty efficient
