Hi Dylan

you wrote in the a previous thread that one can use gdal 1.5 directly to access a WMS ressource which is defined in an xml file (see snippet below). As 1.5 is out (and I compiled with MrSid support - works nicely by the way), I looked but could find no information on that feature. Could you please elaborate how I can use this instead of setting up a mapserver on localhost?

Thanks a lot,

Rainer
