[Chameleon] layer manager

[Paul Spencer]

There are two ways.  First, there is a form variable that is set when 
you select a layer in this way, SELECTED_LAYERS.  Second, there is 
metadata set on each layer when the page is submitted which you can test 
using:

if( $oLayer->getMetadata( "selected" ) == "1")
{
     //layer is selected.
}

Note that this is updated during ParseURL processing so it may not be 
available to your widget in ParseURL unless you set a lower priority 
that the SelectLayers widget or you access it in DrawPublish (or one of 
the GetXXXX functions)

Cheers,

Paul
