[OpenLayers-Users] IE6 requests FORMAT=image/GIF - solved

[Lehtonen, Mika]

Setting format to image/gif left my polygons opaque in IE6, although I 
have opacity set to 0.2 in my SLD. In the other browser there are no 
problems. Maybe I had a bad syntax? Also, I am using MapFish, but as I 
remember, the test OL 2.6 of mine had same problems.
