[OpenLayers-Users] how to calculate BBOX for tiles

Hi List!

I am trying to selectivly delete tiles from TileCache for specific
BBOXes in order to regenerate parts of the map. I am using this script
which Tim posted two years ago:
http://n2.nabble.com/locating-bad-tiles...-td1836476.html
Supplying the URL which OpenLayers generates for a specific tile
refreshes this tile in the TileCache.

So I need to know how OpenLayers calculates the BBOXes for the tiles to
be requested. Can someone point me to this piece of code?

Here is what should happen:

- I have the BBOX of the part of the map that should be regenerated
- calculate the corresponding tiles in all zoom levels
- pass these tiles' BBOX to Tim's script that regenerates the matching
tiles in the TileCache

or in short: how to get the URLs for tiles, that cover a specific area?

Thanks for any hints - or even better approaches.

Kevin
