[ka-Map-users] openlayers breaks kamap?

I'm playing with the idea of implementing an OpenLayers frontend to my 
kamap tiles. Partly because OL already does the zoomin/pan to new 
location on double click, which would save me from debugging this in 
kamap :-)

First question: it looks like if I create that tile.php that is 
documented on the OL site, I will break my currently working kamap 
install. (I tried this and it DID break)

The new tile.php required for the OL implentation appears to be a 
concatenation of config.php and SOME of the old tile.php?

Is there a difference that I am not catching that would break my 
currently working app?

Second question: In the example shown on the wiki 
(http://trac.openlayers.org/wiki/OpenLayers.Layer.KaMap), the map object 
points to index.php as shown here:

var jpl = new OpenLayers.Layer.KaMap( "Satellite",
                     "http://www.openlayers.org/world/index.php", {g: 
"satellite", map: "world"});
     map.addLayer(jpl);


Shouldn't this point to tile.php???

Thanks for all!
