I am sorry to insist on my request but I am still facing this problem of the 
double labels with the new 3.2 environment and I need your help at least to 
see if you can replicate the problem. After having experienced the problem 
in one computer I tried with another having a different operating system 
(win xp instead of win 2000) and the problem is still there.

Would u please be so gentle to test the following:

on a winxp system or windows 2000 pro

- install wampserver 1.6.1 (wamp5_1.6.1.exe)
- install cartoweb 3.2 (cartoweb-setup-3.2.0b.exe) and 
(cartoweb-demo-setup-3.2.0b.exe)
- restart the wampserver
- open the demoCW3 project mapfile that should be located at 
C:\wamp\www\cartoweb3\projects\demoCW3\server_conf\demoCW3\demoCW3.map
- go to line 456 of the Mapfile and remove or comment the line with: 
BACKGROUNDCOLOR 245 235 235 (label section of the AGGLO layer)
- start the Cartoweb application ex: http://localhost select cartoweb3
- start the Cartoweb3 Demo application  in the main panel
- in the legend click on the go to scale Icon of the TOWNS layer in the 
Human activities block
- activate the TOWNS layer
- move to Wien (Vienna) or browse the map until u find any town with a 
namethat include a blank
- check if u just see a normal label reporting Wien (Vienna) in 2 lines or 
if you see a doubles label reporting:
   WIEN
   WIEN
  (VIENNA)
  (VIENNA)

- pls tell me the result of your test
- in case you experience the same problems tell me if u have an idea of 
which element cause the double labels, considering that with winamp 1.4.5 
and Cartoweb 3.1 this problem doesn't happen.
Thanx In advance
Giorgio
