&gt; using WMS I can see California in the right place, right size for ANY zoom level... but it still displays a black background... (TMS still same problems....)<br>

<div><div></div><div class="h5"><br></div></div></blockquote><div><br>actually it is displayed with opacity 0.5... so it is displayed in top of Google maps but still you can see google maps behind it...  but it draws also a black background (semi transparent)... infact the images that I get from the URL generated by OpenLayers woud be a black box with a piece of CA drawn over it....<br>
