Did you try a "shift-refresh"? That will force netscape to refresh it. Changes in the map
file are not known to the webserver so that's often needed. Using a "post" for forms will
also always result in a refresh. That said, "get" is more useful for debugging since you
can see what's being sent. Once communication is working and you're just tuning display
of the map with the mapfile I use "post" forms.

Chris: I'll work through your suggestions, thanks.

Anyone: I struck a strange feature.  I was trying to understand the
extent object in the .map file so I reduced the minimum values on
Example 2 (a static shapefile), and the map zoomed out. Fine. I changed
them back, clicked reload on Netscape, and it didn't zoom back in.  If
I'm not achieving an effective refresh then debugging is going to be
tricky.  Any comments?
