Description
(from Mandy Fleischhauer email on mapserver-users) > I use Mapserver version 4.8.1 on a apache 2.0.55 (win XP) > When i send a GetCapabilities-Request (version 1.1.0), i get > a invalid Capabilities-Response. > > In the Capabilities there is an element <GetLegendGraphic> > which is not allowed in version 1.1.0. This element is only > allowed in version 1.1.1 and higher. > Thanks for the info. I've looked at the DTDs, and you are correct. GetLegendGraphic and GetStyles are NOT supported as XML elements in 1.1.0 (see DTD at: http://schemas.opengeospatial.net/wms/1.1.0/capabilities_1_1_0.dtd). If I eliminate GetLegendGraphic and GetStyles elements, the XML is valid again. We'll have to omit this from the 1.1.0 output Capabilities response. Keep in mind that, although we will now omit GetLegendGraphic from MapServer's OGC:WMS 1.1.0 GetCapabilities response, we should still keep the LegendURL in the capabilities, which points to GetLegendGraphic requests; this is fine (just because it's not supported in Capabilities XML doesn't mean we can't use it to offer up a legend image).

Fixed. GetLegendGraphic and GetStyles only appear in 1.1.1 and higher responses.
