Hi all I am having a problem with WMS. I am using OpenLayers as my rendering engine. Basically I am already aware of the fact that when you have a feature that is a point geometry, if the label/symbol spans multiple tiles, it will not render on the tile that the point is not located on. I was able to get this working in single tile mode, but it just isn't efficient enough, and the map lags at each pan. I am just wondering if anyone has tackled and solved this issue before, or if this is one of those issues that remains a mystery. Any help would be greatly apreciated.<br>
<br>One last thing, here is my WMS request details:<br><br><table selected class="netInfoParamsText netInfoText
