Hello Michael,

Thanks for your quick answer. Well, i'm not sure but i think i was using
version 1.0.1. Nevertheless, i have downloaded the trunk and still get the
same wrong coordinates as before.

Any hints more?

I would also like to make an additional question which might be important
after solving this issue. Is it possible to use grids through proj4js?? This
might be or relevance specially if i want to reproject from EPSG:27492 to
EPSG:3763 (etrs89).

Thanks once again.
Best regards,

Hugo
