[Geomoose-users] Feature Reports notes

[Brent Fraser]

Ok, as it turns out it IS necessary to put the key name in the service 
definition (so follow my instructions sent at 10:57 below). For now.

I think the fix would be fairly simple:  change feature_report.php to 
reference the "PID" parameter (maybe "FID" would be a better name?).

Specifically, change line 67 from:

$layer->setFilter(str_replace('%qstring%', urldecode($_REQUEST[$qItem]), 
$query_info->getAttribute('string')));

to
$layer->setFilter(str_replace('%qstring%', $_REQUEST['PID'], 
$query_info->getAttribute('string')));

And an implementer would now specify:

<tr><td align="left"><b><a href = 
"javascript:GeoMOOSE.startService('*feature_report*', {'*PID*': 
'[BF_ID]', 'src' : 'Hydrography/Lakes'})">Report</a></b></td></tr>


(if the layer's unique key was named "BF_ID")

Best Regards,
Brent Fraser
