I am trying to display tiffs using MS 3.5. I get the foll. as part of
the mesg. when I run my configure script:
checking whether we should include JPEG support...
checking for jpeg_read_header in -ljpeg... yes
        using libjpeg from system libs.
checking whether we should include TIFF support...
checking for TIFFOpen in -ltiff... yes
        using libtiff from system libs.
And if I've understood correctly TIFF support is included when I do a
normal 'make'.
The foll. is my layer defn. for tiff:
LAYER
   NAME mosaic_1999_false
   TYPE RASTER
   STATUS DEFAULT
   DATA data/mosaic_1999_false.tif
END
The images are 8-bit so should render correctly, but all I get is a blank
image. I used examples from the mailing list archive to define the layer.
If anybody can point out the problem. Thanks,
