[mapserver-users] SDE connection question

[Hockaday, John]

Debbie,

Thanks for letting us know that there was a problem.  It should be now
fixed.  Can you test it again?  

I haven't looked at that interface for a while and the problem was caused by
another script that did a global change of the html pages across our site.
This corrupted the file.

Thanks again for letting us know it was broken.

John
