I tested to see if my CGI program is working and it is apparently cause =
I receive the correct messages.  They are as follows:

C:\MapServer>mapserv.exe=20
This script can only be used to decode form results and=20
should be initiated as a CGI process via a httpd server.=20

C:\MapServer>mapserv -v=20
MapServer version 3.6.6 OUTPUT=3DGIF OUTPUT=3DPNG OUTPUT=3DJPEG =
OUTPUT=3DWBMP SUPPORTS=3DP=20
ROJ SUPPORTS=3DTTF SUPPORTS=3DWMS_SERVER SUPPORTS=3DWMS_CLIENT =
INPUT=3DTIFF INPUT=3DEPPL7=20
INPUT=3DJPEG INPUT=3DSHAPEFILE=20

Yet I still have trouble with running mapserver on my xp machine using =
iis.  I downloaded the demo itasca and followed the steps to get that up =
and running but it still doesn't work. I changed my paths as needed and =
there is still something wrong.

If anyone has any ideas let me know=20

Thanks=20
