Hi All,

I have been trying to display a map of the world using the attached .MAP
file (also displayed below), however, this has met with limited success.

All that i have managed to display is the .HTML template, unfortunately no
image is displayed and no error messages are displayed.

It might be a lot to ask but if you can see anything i've missed i would
really appreciate any help you can provide.

Cheers
Oliver Ishmael
