Hi Chad,<br><br>I wasn't aware that "tile" is a valid mode of operation for Mapserver. I looked on <a href="http://mapserver.org/cgi/controls.html">http://mapserver.org/cgi/controls.html</a> and didn't see it referenced there, but its entirely possible that it exists and that I've just missed it. In any case, the way I'm familiar with generating google map tiles is via the use of Tilecache. Tilecache works as in intermediary between Mapserver and your Google map. It make the appropriate request to Mapserver for a tile, and then returns the tile to your map. I think this might be the solution you're looking for, <a href="http://tilecache.org/">http://tilecache.org/</a>.<br>

<p>Greetings,</p>
<p>I have been trying to generate google tiles from shapefiles
using mapserver. I have been able to successfully generate maps by
calling the url <a href="http://0.0.0.0/cgi-bin/mapserv?map=/srv/www/htdocs/mapserver/coverage.map&mode=map" target="_blank">http://0.0.0.0/cgi-bin/mapserv?map=/srv/www/htdocs/mapserver/coverage.map&mode=map</a>
. but when I attempt to use the url <a href="http://172.18.154.186/cgi-bin/mapserv?map=/srv/www/htdocs/mapserver/coverage.map&mode=tile&tile=4+6+4" target="_blank">http://172.18.154.186/cgi-bin/mapserv?map=/srv/www/htdocs/mapserver/coverage.map&mode=tile&tile=4+6+4</a>
I receive only empty images, regardless of tile specified.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>Thanks for any help!</p>
