Hi Rich,

I can't find the .php file, as part of the initial (2006) dbox release, 
would you mind sharing it with me?  I'll add it into the archive, for 
MS4W: https://ms4w.com/release/apps/dbox-0.9a1_demo_ms4w.zip

(I updated the initial mapfile for dbox, so it works with MapServer 8+)

thanks,

-jeff
