Mapserver demo crash

[Matt Garrish]

It only dies in IIS when I run the demo (so far, anyway). I am, for example, able to run the "Hello World" example on the recipes page (http://www.mobilegeographics.com/mapserver/). Aside from the parameters that get passed from the index.html page (reproduced below), I've set the following in the itasca.map file:

SHAPEPATH "c:/inetpub/wwwroot/workshop/data"

WMS_ONLINERESOURCE "http://localhost/workshop/index.html"

I'm going to try running the example on a win2k box and see if it's something specific to XP (I've tried a couple of different XP boxes with the same result).
