[Chameleon] Layers always on

[Paul Spencer]

Mark,

I assumed you would either not set visible in the metadata or set it to 
"1" if you wanted to show a layer and set it to "0" if you wanted to 
hide a layer.  I probably didn't set it up right, it was just an 
example.  If you have it working, great!
