legend generation

[Dolf Andringa]

Sorry, but I have another question. Is it possible to get the layer 
names in the legend? Now I only get the different classes. I would like 
first the layer name and then the legenditems for that layer. Setting 
layer.name and/or layer.title does not help..
Thanks,

Dolf.
