Jacob,

I've skirted this issue in IE (somewhat) by increasing the default tile size
from 200x200 to something a bit bigger, roughly 2.5X in areal size. Although
it ends up being the same data volume to load (obviously), IE seems to
*appreciate* not having to load so many separate tiles.

I have had a lot of problems with IE, because it seems to try to load
everything at once.
(http://lists.maptools.org/pipermail/ka-map-users/2005-August/000256.htm
l) Maybe in part because our server is not up to the load, although Firefox
always worked fine. 

I suspect that Internet Explorer can not deal with loading too many files at
the same time. In Ka-Map, the number can rise very quickly, especially with
a few groups. Maybe it would be possible to design a 'queue' where images to
be loaded get put on, and then control it to only load a few images at a
time. Currently IE tries to download >120 images at once, which it obviously
can't anyway.

Regards,

Jacob
