Hello !

Well, things are oging pretty well, but now I've run accross a strange
behavior
I was hoping someone could explain ...

When I map my search results (using php-mapscript as allways), I create
atemporary shapefile.
This shapefile use geographical coordinates, whereas the rest of the data
used to generate the
map uses a different projection (lcc to be exact).

Now for some reason, results don't seem to show up in the far north
(Nunavut) !
Actually, they do show up, but only once I zoom in ! Now, I am *NOT* doing
anything to that layer
that might do this, the layer is "ON" by default, and that's it. All the
Other symbols show up.
Actually results in Iqualuit show, but not other smaller Nunavut communities
... Until I zoom in.

I'm wondering why this might be, and how to fix it ... I'm guessing the
projection conversion might
have something to do with it ? But that's out of my area of expertise ...

Any ideas ?

Thanks,
