[maplab-users] RE: [mapserver-users] How to get rid of stock credits

[Dean Gadoury]

That is a very good point, and is a better solution if you want to 
eliminate the line in all you applications, or put in one of your own. 
Just a note though, the line to edit may be different under different 
platforms and/or configurations. For example on my Windows system in 
MapLab version 2.0rc3-dev the line to edit is 365. For the sake of 
clarity here is the contents of that line:
."<font face=\"Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif\" size=\"1\" 
color=\"#999999\">this application was built using <a 
href=\"http://www2.dmsolutions.ca/webtools/\">GMapFactory</a></font>"
