I want to include different sources of maps in a mapclient. One source I provide myself with a self-written mapfile rendered by an UMN-mapserver. Problem is, that UMN renders the background (places there no feature is) as white, and if I combine this in the mapclient, this hides all layers behind. What do I write into the mapfile, that t...

That's no problem, but on the view showing the complete area, the borders dominate the image, because each geometry has only a few pixels. So I w...
