[Mapserver-users] Problems with projection

I got problems with projecting.
I have some files in WGS84 and what to reproject them for users into
Mercator.
I use following PROJECTION element in map definition file:

PROJECTION
  "proj=merc"
  "ellps=bessel"
  "lat_ts=0N"
  "lon_0=110E"
  "k_0=0.997"
  "x_0=3900000m"
  "y_0=900000m"
END

I'm not using PROJECTION subelements in LAYERs as this information is stored
in shape files.
I see no difference in produced image - with or without main PROJECTION
element so I think that is not working for me (olso I think I know how
Mercator should look like).

Have you got any idea what I'm doing wrong?
