John -

If you create a simple MAP file that specifies no projection at all, do you get a different result than if you specify that PROJECTION block?

Is it possible that you're displaying the image in an IMG tag that's got a HEIGHT and WIDTH explicitly specified?

How are projections handled in map server?  When I use: 	PROJECTION
	  "proj=longlat"
	  "ellps=GRS80"
	END

The image seems to be sheared or stretched in the north south direction.
The data I am using is in lon/lat coordinates.

Thanks

John
