[OpenLayers-Users] TMS and mobile browser

Hi again,

I have tested TMS layer with OL on Nokia mobile a bit more.
Some "funny" results:
- the OL loads and all controls are functional, but the TMS layer is not
visible.
- I have added the OSM layer as base layer (which is also a TMS but remote;
for this test I have connected to net via WLAN). The OSM loads correctly but
not the local TMS layer.
- I have visited my mobile site on nokia (sitename.mymobile.net) and the OL
functions correctly 100%. Both OSM and the local mobile TMS layer are loaded
and explorable.

So the question remains: why local tiles are not visible in mobile browser,
but are visible on net? All urls are correct and also apparently code is OK
(no java script errors)

All the best,
Adorian
