[Mapserver-users] GIF and PNG file formats

[Saurabh Data]

Dear Users

After configuring mapserver, I had problems in displaying the image files 
(as a blank screen would appear). The demo comes with image files in GIF 
format but doesnt support the format. It however, supports the PNG format. I 
had to change all the image files from GIF to PNG format to display it on 
the screen and it now works.

This is not included in the documentation. My question is why by default it 
comes in GIF format when it doesnt support this and why is this not included 
in the documentation. OR did I miss any point ?

Many Thanks

Saurabh Data
