[Mapserver-users] ArcExplorer 4.0.1 and Mapserver WMS - Wiki page

[Thomas Bartlett]

I know that I have tried using "&amp" at the end of the WMS_ONLINERESOURCE
tab in the map file but it didn't seem to help.  Is this the only place I
should need it ?

Either way I'm adding it the list of thing to try !

Cheers
