[mapserver-users] loadWeb(): Unknown identifier. Parsing error near (:):(line 1)

Tue May 20 12:46:31 EDT 2008

if you can, yes, have a try to linux. But this should work on Windows too.
it's been a long time since I haven't used MapServer on Windows, but I 
remember having had problems with backslashes. Can you try doubling them 
(ie C:\\ms4w\\Apache\\htdocs\\test.html)

Can you confirm it is still the exact same error (parsing error on line 
1) ?

then, can you check your CR-LF as well ?

Hope that helps !
