[postgis-users] Zoom problems

What sort of interface are you using to pan/zoom etc? One that you developed
yourself using mapscript? It seems likely that your list of layers is
getting lost, so you are just showing a blank page (try changing the
background color in your mapfile to test if this is the case). It is also
possible that your extents after panning/zooming and doing an incorect
calculation either very big, or very small, or do not intersect with you
data (do the extents you are sending mapserver after zooming/panning
actually contain data?).

It is very likely that either your layers or extents are getting messed up
in the pan/zoom process and this is what is causing your problem, do some
debugging by looking more closely at those variables of your mapserver
request.
