If you only use WMS client layers in Chameleon, this should be possible (if
I understand your problem correctly).

Best regards,
Bart

> Hello,I&#39;d like to use chameleon to build our GIS web app but have to
cope with a major difficulty:Our website is physically and logically
separated from our GIS server runningMapserver and Chameleon (different
cities &amp; networks). This implies that every change induced 
> by the user has to be tranferred to the GIS server which sends back the
answer (the map).Until now I have used a custom PHP/Mapscript application
but I would like to benefit from theChameleon framework to build nicer and
more functional applications.
> For the moment all the command logic is situated on the web server which
handles requestsand then sends appropriate data to the GIS server to build
the map. When the map returnsthe web server updates it&#39;s internal info
(extent) and presents the map. All the databases
> are situated on the webserver so the GIS is only used for map generation.
I understand that this would not be possible with Chameleon since it handles
both commandlogic and map generation. I was wondering if any of you has had
to deal with such a situation before and if you
