[Chameleon] Map and keymap not loading

[Rene Teniere]

Hi all,

I am using Chameleon 1.1 alpha6. I have used the sample given on the
website as a template to test with using my own data to no avail. It
seems that both the sample and the test I created do not load up the map
and keymap. On my test page, the scalebar loads fine, and all buttons
and their functionality (cursorpos, ruler, etc.). 

The scalebar image and map file are created in the temp directory, but
that is all. I am pretty sure the map file works, because I have gotten
it to load up in php. The 'loading image please wait' icon stays visible
all the time, and when I click on the keymap, or try to use one of the
zoom buttons, I get a new browser window that says that the page cannot
be displayed. 

I can't seem to be able to figure this one out, but I feel really close
to figuring it out. I hope I have provided enough background info.
Thanks a bunch!

Rene
