Screenshot function doesn't work with tiled map services or remote WMSs

Description (last modified by JonBlower) (diff)

Screenshot function loads background map through a straight WMS call, since the map's boundary will be an arbitrary bounding box. This means that the background cannot be loaded from a tiled map service. We either need to source "normal" WMS servers for the background maps, or adapt the screenshot code to load tiles.

The function also doesn't work if the Godiva2 site is displaying data from a remote WMS (could be a problem for MyOcean).
