[OpenLayers-Users] Accessing Current Map from Server Side

[Christian Mayer]

Hello Kalyan,

this sound for me that you have to send the settings of your visible 
layers in the map (wms-url, layer name, extent, srs...) to your server 
and render it again on the server. This is actually what the MapFish 
print module does. It receives a configuration object describing the map 
state and renders it again an makes a PDF out of it.

Maybe you have a look at this 
(http://dev.mapfish.org/sandbox/website/.build/html/mapfish_print.html)

Best regards,
Chris
