[Geomoose-users] Query Service Code for GM 1.6

[Jay Kapalczynski]

If any of you are interested I have made a multi-search in GM 1.6 using a service and map file expressions.
My only issue right now is that it DOES NOT highlight the returned records in the map.  I don't think 1.6 was written to do this.
But would be very interested if anyone knew how to do this!!!!!!!!!!!
I am using the same area for the search out of the box on the search tab...I simply made it (with the help of others) a multiple search on one tab.

Any questions please feel free to contact me...

Demo.xml
The QuerySearch below is the service being used.  All you have to do is create more input types to increase the searching attributes
Notice in the Search service below the extra "subform title"
Demo.html
                Notice the input names reflected in the Service above
Itemquery_PID.map
                Notice the expression being built in the Filter using the input type ID value
                                              FILTER ('[USE1_DESC]'=~ /.*%idOwnerQueryDESC%.*/ AND '[BLOCK]'=~ /.*%idOwnerQueryBLOCK%.*/)
                USE1_DESC and BLOCK are actual field names in the Parcels shapefile
Itemquery_parcels_DESC.html
                Obviously at this point you just need to configure this file to show the data you wish for each returned record


In the Demo.xml
