IE hangs with drawmap.php



Hi All

Can anybody tell why Internet Explorer (version 5 and 6) hangs with some images produced from drawmap.php?

With Firefox everything is fine. However when I call the same URL in IE the browser hangs completely, consuming most of my CPU and freezing the whole system after some minutes!
This happens only at certain map extents or scales. I tried changing the output format options in chameleon.xml as well as in the mapfile. The only effect was that other map extents caused the problem. I found no configuration that worked for all situations.


I have copied and posted some of the images produced from drawmap.php below. However when I call the saved images with their extension even IE manages to display them.

Any ideas?
