mapserv at dinequest.us mapserv at dinequest.us

still no luck with the "../httpdocs/data/".

perhaps my ISP may have a strange permission setting in apache or some other 
apache CGI issue that i'm unaware of because it works on my box i have set up 
with the same mapserv static binary, using the same mapfile (different dirs of 
course), under the same version of apache (1.3.27).

or it might be to do with the url string? Does mapserver know to send the image 
back to the url source? That seems like a big "Duh", but there is obviously 
something i'm missing that's causing the "premature end of script headers" 
error, and i'm pretty sure it doesn't have to do with the map file...
