Hi Pietro,
 
That was it!  After making this correction, it works!  
 
Thank you,
Bob

Bob,
maybe error is in first line: "ellps-GRS80" is wrong, "ellps=GRS80" is correct.
bye

	I am trying to project an object from UTM to lat-long.  I cannot get the projection to work, and I suspect it's the parameters for the UTM projection object.  I am trying to project from UTM Zone 19N, NAD 1983 to lat-long.  Here is my code:

	$projInObj = ms_newprojectionobj("proj=utm,ellps-GRS80,datum=NAD83,zone=19,units=m,north,no_defs"); 
	$projOutObj = ms_newprojectionobj("proj=latlong"); 
	$poPoint = ms_newpointobj(); 
	$poPoint->setXY($xmin, $ymin); 
	echo "<p/>Coords: " . $poPoint->x . ",".$poPoint->y; 
	$poPoint = $poPoint->project($projInObj, $projOutObj); 
	echo "<p/>x = " . $poPoint->x; 
	echo "<p/>y = " . $poPoint->y; 
	$poPoint->free(); 

	I can see the output using the echo lines.  The coordinates going into the point show up and are correct, but there are no x/y values after doing the project.  Can anyone see what I'm doing wrong?
