Hi,
I love OmniWeb, but..... [this is the officially correct bug
report form, right?]
When I try to get weather maps as backdrops for the X display I run
on my cube's second head, it doesn't work any more. It worked fine
in the immediately previous (prec-Xmas) version, but no more.
The weather maps are to be found on the MSU/UCG "WX-Maps to go"
server. My display is set to allow that machine to draw on it, and
as I say it used to work. Here's the URL for the WX-MAPS to go
form:
http://rs560.cl.msu.edu/weather/getmegif.html
But when I ask for a map, the connection is made but nothing gets
drawn. The Console reports the following:

What's up? And how can I/you fix it? I can't leave the office until
I find out what the weather is......
