Nelson,
A couple things:
I looked over the WMS GetFeatureInfo request, and this is exactly what
I need. For some reason, though the only data I am getting back looks
like this:
GetFeatureInfo results:
Layer 'ira_fill2'
Feature 689:
What's your template (query.html) look like?
PROJECTION
"init=epsg:54004"
END
I am assuming this projection is what is defined in your proj file by
what is sometimes referred to as 'world mercator'. If so, you may be
interested in using this projection instead (won't make a huge
difference in the states, but it is more accurate still)
