I know this question hs been asked many times, but I can't seeme to find the
solution.

I ahve a shape file that is in geographics (i.e. WGS84 lat/lon). I wish to
display the shape file in UTM m. I tried putting the projection definition
but the map does not show. My mouse coordinates (within jBox) are expressed
in UTM m, but map is not dispalyed.

PROJECTION
    "proj=utm"
    "datum=WGS84"
  END

I also have -

EXTENT 111000 592500 279600 711000
UNITS METERS

Any ideas?

Thanks
