[Users] configuring layers in geoexplorer

Hi Tim,

Sorry to ask you again but I have used the GeoExplorer and I have an
issue with the layers styles. When I run the application in IE 6, the
layers are displayed with a grey background as you can see in the
attached file. Do you have any idea why?

regards,
Johan

I should add that the latest "release" of the app is actually what you 
get in the zip archive linked from this blog post: 
http://blog.opengeo.org/2009/06/17/geoexplorer-preview/

This comes from the 0.1.x branch - not the trunk.

If you are trying out the app at the trunk, you can use more than one 
OWS.  I'll be making another tag for 0.2 in a few days.  This tag will 
come with some basic docs.
