Which formatting is considered correct? Would this be the source of the
parsing error?
[HII_railroads]
type=WMS
url=http://141.117.104.183/cgi-bin/mapserv.exe
mapfile=C:/ms4w/Apache/htdocs/moot2_dev/hii_railroads.map
extension=png
layers=HII_railroads
or
[HII_railroads]
type=WMS
url=http://141.117.104.183/cgi-bin/mapserv.exe
mapfile=C:/ms4w/Apache/htdocs/moot2_dev/hii_railroads.map
extension=png
layers=HII_railroads
*Note the indentation.
