[gdal-dev] WMS, blocksize and black lines

Chris,

Thanks for the answer, if I put the window in the XML file it indeed 
also works for me.

But in my application I am sampling the GDAL dataset from code and 
setting a different window each time from code as well. So to modify the 
WMS XML every time in that case would not really be a work able 
solution.

This approach worked fine in the past with another WMS server, so I was 
hoping I missed some setting somewhere or so. I'll do some more 
experimentation.

Arno
