Robert,
The wfs specs indicates that values for the BBOX parameter should be
separated by commas which is what Mapserver is doing. There is no other
setting in mapserver that would allow you to change the format of BBOX
easily. I think the best would be for the server to respect the syntax
described in the specs.
Best Regards,

Hey folks,
I am trying to hit NOAA’s experimental point based weather forecast
product WFS server. I am using mapserver as a client, and I seem to be
getting a strange incompatibility, that appears to be in a subtle
feature of the WFS query that Mapserver is putting together. The
difference between the query that NOAA wants, and the one that mapserver
produces is in the BBOX parameter. NOAA wants a space between the two
corners, and mapserver puts a comma, a la:
NOAA Wants:
BBOX=-79.6222567785354,37.8816528320313 -77.4274563562303,39.3436317443848
Mapserver Sends:
BBOX=-79.6222567785354,37.8816528320313,-77.4274563562303,39.3436317443848
Doesn’t Work (mapserver):

Maybe I am missing some crucial configuration param?
Thanks in advance,
