Frank, Thanks for the answer. My problem is with the layers in the client mapfile. We have several wms layers but i do not know how to indicate to MapServer to make POST requests to the WMS server (instead of GET requests). I have found the wfs_request_method parameter but I did not find a "wms_request_method".
I have made some tests and, as WMS Server, MapServer do supports URL-encoded POST request. Thanks again, Jorge 2005/11/10, Frank Warmerdam <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>: > On 11/10/05, J.
