[fusion-users] Tiling and <SingleTile>

[Paul Deschamps]

Hi andrew.

This message you are seeing in the status bar is related to a 500 error that
is occurring in a legend graphic request

http://pitrule.source3.com/fusion//MapServer/php/LegendIcon.php?mapname=Pit%20Rule%20Web%20GIS%20v.08.10&session=491457263740b&layername=Highways&classindex=0

Check your apache logs and it may give you more information as to what error
legendIcon.php is throwing.

If you do not have firebug I would suggest you install it. you can see this
error in the NET tab of firebug.

Cheers

Paul D.
