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

[Bjoern Platzen]

Hi Steve,

I already did such a test with a Fireworks-generated PNG and it works in 
NS 6. But I think that mustn't mean, that it's not a NS-Bug...

The WMS-Client that does the GetMap-Request requests as well Maps from 
other WMS (that are not UMN-MapServer-WMS) and there the transparency 
works. AFAIK these WMS use Index-Transparency.

Does MapServer 3.6 support Index-Transparency? I couldn't find in the 
docs, so I think it does not, right?

At the Moment the WMS-Client is presented at the InterGeo in Hamburg, so 
that we are going to dig deeper into this next week. I just hoped, that 
this would be a known issue... (though I didn't find anything about 
this in the archives)

I you or someone else has another idea, what may cause the problem, 
please tell me...

Thanks,

Bjoern.
