Trouble getting SLD working

[Bart van den Eijnden]

Hi Rod,

I can't see anything obvious wrong with what you are doing.

A few questions:

-is your WMS GetCapabilities working?

-does the LAYER work without an SLD, ie when you specify a CLASS?

-does it work if you leave out the style parameter in the request?

-your WMS request is not a full WMS request, it should contain a BBOX,
WIDTH, HEIGHT and SRS (among others). But Mapserver seems to be leniant
towards this and probably uses MAP file values.

Best regards,
Bart
