[OpenLayers-Users] clipping tile boundaries for TMS layer

[scott ellington]

Hi folks,

I am interested in overlaying a TMS layer that is a subset of the map
boundaries.  Currently, I just get broken image icons on the areas
outside of my extents and I'd like to avoid that.  I have found the
following thread which seems to imply that having a TMS with a
different max extent is not yet possible:

Is this still the case?  If so, I am thinking of overriding the getURL
property and clipping out tile requests programmatically.  I had to do
the same thing for google maps:

Anyone else had experience with this?

Thanks,
