What does a processed URL look like? That is, after MapServer has done the various substitutions.<br><br>Typically when using MapServer tags in a URL context you should be using the escaped versions so<br>that spaces and other characters are properly represented. For example:<br>
<br> http:/localhost:8888/cgi-bin/mapserv?map=[map]&mapext=[mapext_esc]&layers=[layers_esc]&map_web=TEMPLATE+pgs/print.html&mapsize=1500+1182<br><br>Does that make a difference?<br><br>Steve<br><br>>>> On 10/22/2009 at 1:42 PM, in message<br>
