[OpenLayers-Users] Zoom 2 Layer

[Andreas Hocevar]

getDataExtent only works for layers that are rendered client-side
(i.e. vector layers). For other layers (e.g. WMS), your best bet is to
use OpenLayers.Format.WMSCapabilities and create the layer with the
bbox advertised there as maxExtent, and use
map.zoomToExtent(layer.getMaxExtent()) instead.
