[OpenLayers-Dev] [UMN_MAPSERVER-USERS] WMS tiles & artifacts

[Paul Spencer]

I think this is a good fix for those that can't change their WMS server.

It should probably be clearly documented that if you use this  
technique, you can end up with clipped labels and point symbols that  
would otherwise not occur.

Cheers

Paul
