[MS4W-Users] Incorrect LatLonBoundingBox values for ESPG:3719

[Stephen Woodbridge]

This has com up in a bunch of threads lately, both here and on mapserver 
lists. Soooo ...

When you are using a projection in a LAYER or the MAP section of the 
mapfile coordinates like BoundingBox or EXTENT must be supplied in the 
projectioned frame of reference and not in longlat.

For people that need to perform projections there is an online tool here 
that might help you with converting them:
