<p class=MsoNormal>I'm displaying UK Ordnance Survey MasterMap vector maps
using OpenLayers, TileCache and MapServer. The maps display perfectly when I
use just MapServer ( <a
href="http://osgeo-org.1803224.n2.nabble.com/file/n5389483/MapServer.jpg"
target="_top">MapServer.jpg</a> ), as well as when I also use OpenLayers.
However, when I add TileCache to the mix, the various symbol images are no
longer transparent ( <a
href="http://osgeo-org.1803224.n2.nabble.com/file/n5389483/TileCache.jpg"
target="_top">TileCache.jpg</a> ).<span style='color:#1F497D'><o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class=MsoNormal><span style='font-size:11.0pt;font-family:"Calibri","sans-serif";
color:#1F497D'><o:p> </o:p></span></p>
<p class=MsoNormal>I don't have that much experience of TileCache, so any
help/explanation would be most appreciated!<span style='color:#1F497D'><o:p></o:p></span></p>
