MapServer & IWS 8.0 : Connectiontype WMS

[Bart van den Eijnden (OSGIS)]

Hi Fabio,

this behaviour is called url encoding, but I believe Mapserver is not doing
this completely according to the WMS spec.

This post by Keith Pomakis from Cubewerx in the OpenLayers bug system
describes the issue nicely:

http://trac.openlayers.org/ticket/491

So what you should do is open up a bug report for this in Mapserver, as it
should not be urlencoding the comma in BBOX.

Best regards,
Bart
