[mapserver-users] Diffrence in Proj4 and MapX values

[Richard Greenwood]

Be sure your projection and datum are the same for MapX and Proj4. It looks 
like you used the MapX "generic" lat/long for the MapX input, which can 
lead to strange behavior (MapX will match the projection to other layer 
present in the workspace). And it looks like MapX defaults to NAD27 for the 
Robinson.
