IE hangs with drawmap.php

[Julien-Samuel Lacroix <jlacroix (at) dmsolutions.ca>]

Hi,
I'm not a Windows specialist, but I did not heard of any problem like 
that in the past. Since it works on some machine and not on others, I 
would suspect a client side problem. Which Windows' version is it (on 
both working and non-working machine)? any service pack?

However, maybe PHP/Mapscript does return some errors. Which version of 
MapScript/Mapserver and did you used MS4W or is it a custom install?
