I'm using the OpenLayers/geoserver stack and my WMS requests are configured to go via a proxy using the following:

OpenLayers.ProxyHost="../gis/geoserver.seam?url=";

So far so good, all future WMS request are now channelled through this proxy script and WMS images are generated/returned as expected.

My problem arises when viewing the legend, the request to get the layer image (WMS request) ignores the OpenLayers proxy definition and tries connecting direct (client browser->geoserver server which is not externally accessible - hence the proxy).

Does anyone have any idea how I force the legend image requests to use the proxy?

Thank you!
