[OpenLayers-Users] Mapserver projection problem

[Barend Köbben]

Hi,

Since OSM can only be delivered in its native projection (spherical or
"google" mercator, EPSG:900913 or preferably EPSG:3857), all the other
data should be requested in that SRS too, including the BBOX that should
therefore be in meters...

E.g. something like this is the maximum extents of the spherical mercator :
-20037508, -20037508, 20037508, 20037508
