[mapguide-users] Sql For Data Filter

I don't have a list of what the different providers support.
I have used the OGR provider, and it supports PostGIS and limited SQL.

My approach to your problem would be to start out with the layer hidden.
When you want to display the correct district, you read out the WKT of 
the feature (district) you want to perform the intersection test with.
Then you update the filter on the layer to reflect this:
GeoColumn Intersects GEOMFROMTEXT('....wkt....')
Then show the layer.

You should copy the layer into the session repository before altering it.
If you want to theme it, you can create multiple copies of the layer and 
apply theming to the individual layers.
