[Mapserver-users] mapserv doesn't work

Fri Jun 20 07:05:46 PDT 2003

Vincent:
Thank you for your reponse!
My mapserv works in "Query...", it print out a lot of
ascii as you said. I think it is the data of the
generated image.
Then what should i do? Should i config something like
php? My project doesn't use php up to now. But it will
be accepted if mapserv has to work with php lib.
