+There is a CGI parameter called CONTEXT that is used to specify a local 
 context file. The user can then use MapServer to request a map using the 
 following syntax:

 The syntax of using a web accessible context file would be similar to 
 accessing a local context file:
 
-<pre>
+::
+
     http://localhost/mapserver.cgi?MODE=map&MAP=/path/to/mapfile.map&CONTEXT=

-</pre>

 Due to security concerns loading a file from a URL is disabled by default. To 
 enable this functionality, the user needs to set a CONFIG parameter called 
 CGI_CONTEXT_URL in the default map file that will allow this functionality. 
 Here is an example of a map file with the CONFIG parameter:
