How do I make the map load on page load?, currently my map simply loads to a
blank image and you must click on the map in order to get it to load the
image. I do not want to use a button etc, like many examples show, I want
map map to load on this page after you follow the link to this page.

To get the legend to show up, you just need to change the path. Try
<img src="../legend.gif" width="159" height="77" border="0">. Otherwise
you could hard code the entire path to the image.
I believe your map is not showing up because you are not submitting the
form on initialization. Most people would have would put a button on
the form to open the page. Another option would be to put a javascript
function in the OnLoad event of the body tag.

Thanks I created a static image showing the layers I want, only problem
is that once the mapserver invokes the map, the image fails to load
because it has the mapserver-cgi directory infront of the image path,
how do I avoid this?
Image Declaration:
<td>
<p>Legend:<br>
<img src="legend.gif" width="159" height="77" border="0"> </td>
Broken Path:
http://192.168.1.130/cgi-bin/legend.gif
Also on the same note as this currently my map does not show up on first
load you must click on it to get it load. It would be much better to
have the map load on page load. I will include the html file as well.
