[Genome] WIG Data Format Question

[Hiram Clawson]

Good Morning Carole:

Which genome assembly are you loading your wiggle file into, and
what are the names of the chromosomes you have in your input file ?

Which other genome browsers are you talking about that use WIG format
where it functions OK ?
