I was hoping there might be some tricky way of fooling MapServer by encoding, etc.

<div>When querying the TIGER server directly from a browser, the first and third styles of request both work, while the option with the "+" does not. So those are the 2 options the server will accept.</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>I guess Mapserver prefers no space in a name, or a "+" to designate space, so you might be stuck.</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>As a best practice, they really should have the version with a space in the Title rather than the Name, but you can't fix that from your end.</div>

<div>I’m trying to use this WMS:</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div><a href="http://tigerweb.geo.census.gov/arcgis/services/TIGERweb/tigerWMS_ACS2015/MapServer/WMSServer?" target="_blank">http://tigerweb.geo.census.gov/arcgis/services/TIGERweb/tigerWMS_ACS2015/MapServer/WMSServer?</a></div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>Specifically, two layers, “Census Tracts” and “Census Tracts Labels”</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>I can open the service in just about everything, except Mapserver as a WMS client. I’m assuming the problem is in how MapServer is sending it’s request.</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>I must be missing something obvious.</div>
<div><br>

<div>Thanks.</div>
