<DIV><SPAN class=738070908-17112002><FONT face=Arial size=2>is prepended with
the absolute path to the map file, causing great sadness in the open routine for
this data type as the gltp parser barfs when gltp: is not found as the first
five characters of the URL. It appears that the addition of the
msBuildPath invocation in msOGRFileOpen is the culprit. As I'm sure this
works for other data types I have not needed or tested, could I get some advice
regarding handling of this particular situation.</FONT></SPAN></DIV>

<DIV><SPAN class=738070908-17112002><FONT face=Arial size=2>I have temporarily
munged the gltp: parser to search for that string and throw away anything before
it, but I suspect this not the optimal fix.</FONT></SPAN></DIV>
