AW: [mapserver-users] Problems displaying tiffs and jpegs

country.jpg and country.wld are in the same directory as the shapefiles
<cgi-bin>/../htdocs/demo/data/country.jpg. That seems correct to me,
because when I rename the .wld files so that mapserver can not find them
I get an error message. The error disapears when the names of the .wld files
are correct. Seems mapserver looks for them in the directory I put them.

This may seem to be a silly question but is country.jpg & country.wld in
<cgi-bin>/data/country.jpg or in /temp/country.jpg ?
Unless I'm missing something, I don't see a problem comparing the wld's &
the extent.
