hello

before using geocache, I used to send wms request (asking for in a
single tile) with openlayers ;
the names of point (towns etc.) was displayed correctly as mapserver
was looking for the best size ;

now that I am starting to use geocache, I get a problem of legibility
with points names
whose font is sometimes too tiny ; it seems that i didn't set the
right resolutions ;
how is it possible to get the right resolutions ? and is there a
connection between the set of resolutions
and the extent specified into the file geocache.xml ?

in my example I use projection LambertIIe with :
<extent> -1139013 0 3183953 3923131 </extent>
and
<resolutions>100000000 50000000 2500000 1000000 500000 250000 100000
50000 25000 10000 5000 2500 1000 500 250 100 50 25 10 5</resolutions>

the same set of resolutions is specified on the client side with
Openlayers

thanks in advance for any ideas

I don't have your answer, but I hit this same problem recently. I'd
love a wiki page to follow regarding resolutions (if I knew your
answer I would document it ha). I think it will be a common question.

I am sorry but there is no problem ;
the resolutions were not applied to the right layer on the client
side...
