Hello all,
I have a custom Lambert Conformal Conic projection that I want to define 
in my application.
However, I haven't been able to come up with the correct syntax in the 
PROJECTION ....END tags yet (my map will not draw with my projection info 
- if I remove it, it draws fine.)
The parameters are as follows:

PROJCS["IJC Lake Ontario Lambert Conformal 
Conic",GEOGCS["GCS_North_American_1983",DATUM["D_North_American_1983",SPHEROID["GRS_1980",6378137.0,298.257222101]],PRIMEM["Greenwich",0.0],UNIT["Degree",0.0174532925199433]],PROJECTION["Lambert_Conformal_Conic"],PARAMETER["False_Easting",6200000.0],PARAMETER["False_Northing",2958000.0],PARAMETER["Central_Meridian",-91.8666],PARAMETER["Standard_Parallel_1",49.0],PARAMETER["Standard_Parallel_2",77.0],PARAMETER["Scale_Factor",1.0],PARAMETER["Latitude_Of_Origin",63.0],UNIT["Meter",1.0]]

Thanks.
