[Geomoose-users] Search based on lat/lon layer

  I've got a layer in geographic coordinates I'd like to do a GeoMoose Search on.  Unfortunately, Mapserver's shpminx/shpmaxx/shpminx/shpmaxx template values return the shape extents in the layer's coordinate system, not the map coordinate system, so the GeoMoose Map.zoomToViewString call in the itemquery template does not work.

  Has anyone got a Map.zoomToLatLonViewString function laying around?

My other options are:
  Convert the layer to the map projection (a maintenance nightmare)
  Enhance Mapserver's [shpmin} handling to match it's [shpext proj=] abilities (too much work right now)

Thanks!
