[Geomoose-users] Legend issue

[CoFIS Web]

Dear all,
thanks to suggestion on the mapserver list, I replaced the dashes in my 
layer names (in the mapfile & mapbook) with underscores and now the 
problem is gone - almost:

I can switch on and off the individual layers and they only appear at 
their respective positions in the legend. However, if I switch one of 
the layers of may mapfile on (from the legend) I can show the signature 
of the other layer in the legend by using the drop-down button without 
this particular layer being switched on (screenshot).

Can this be changed somehow? If you need to see my mapfile, I'd be happy 
to send it.

Thanks,
Nils
