Hi,
Yet another suggestion (which might not be quite what you want) is to
use the getURL(bounds) method:
var my_wms = new OpenLayers.Layer.WMS(...);
...
alert(my_wms.getURL(new OpenLayers.Bounds(...)));
This will use the BBOX specified by the Bounds object that you pass in
but will preserve all the other parameters of the URL.
HTH,
Jon
