demo problem

Sun Apr 23 04:43:46 EDT 2000

I think you have to use IMAGEPATH and IMAGEURL in your web interface definition in the map
file. For example:
#
# Start of web interface definition
#
WEB
  IMAGEPATH /home/www/tmp/
  IMAGEURL "/tmp/"

  HEADER demo_header.html
  TEMPLATE demo.html
  MINSCALE 1000
  MAXSCALE 1550000
END
# end
