[Geomoose-users] Printing wms layers

[Jim Klassen]

PNG is good. Don't use IE6.. It can't handle PNG24 with alpha.

Not sure what that has to do with printing though as that all happens on the server in PHP.

They work perfectly in GeoMoose map view.  But when I compose a printable map, these layers have a black background which obscures other layers and just plain looks ugly.  If I set the “transparent”  property to false, the black background goes away, but then I can’t see any underlying data.
