[Mapserver-users] Image (PNG) not transparent in Netscape 6

[Steve Lime]

Blame Netscape would be my guess. To test? Create a supposedly
transparent PNG outside of MapServer and see what happens.

Hi Folks,

the images (png) returned by my MapServer WMS are not transparent in 
Netscape 6. In each other Browser, they are...
Is it a NS6-Bug or am I missing something?

Here's a part of the mapfile:

     END  # CLASS

END  # LAYER
#...some more layers...
END#Map

If you have a look in the attached HTML, you'll see, that it renders 
right at least with IE6, Konqueror, Mozilla, Galeon and Netscape 7.

If someone has an idea, please tell me!

Bye,
