Keith,

If you are actually getting an image back there are two likely reasons.  One
is that you are using SERVICE=WMS instead of SERVICE=WFS, and the other is that
you are getting an error back "inimage".  Is the result actually a map?

However, to get help you are likely going to need to show us all your
exact request url, and perhaps your map file.  Ideally, expose the service on
the internet so we can look at it more closely.

Best regards,
