<DIV dir=ltr align=left><SPAN class=388010315-07122006>What we do in Coldfusion
is set a session variable that can be accessed server side anytime. That and the
MapName is the only variables needed for a successful viewer hack. The rest can
be passed as URL query string. Sure the concept is the same in JSP. Anyone know
if there is a fprint equivalent in Coldfusion so we can use the templates more
effectively?</SPAN></DIV>

color=#0000ff>mapframe.jsp should only be called when a complete refresh of the
page is requested by the browser. The page refresh was intended to get a
new copy of the map so the Create() call is appropriate. If a user
wants to refresh just the map pane they can right click in the pane and hit
refresh. A Refresh Icon can also be added to the WebLayout
toolbar.</FONT></SPAN></DIV>

users@mapguide.osgeo.org<BR><B>Subject:</B> Question about map.Create and
map.Open() on the mapframe<BR></FONT><BR></DIV>
<DIV></DIV>All,<BR>I have a questions about loading a map from a saved
MgSession. I also think there is a possible bug in the mapframe.jsp
page that prevents the page from loading a map saved in an open
MgSession<BR><BR>In the mapframe.jsp the page always calls map.Create() forcing
a new Map to be drawn, even if the calling Session already has a Map object
associated to it with the same name. Shouldn't the mapframe.jsp page do a
check to see if the map has been created to the calling MgSession and call a
map.Open() rather then a map.Create() so that the map will have the proper
layers saved in the users session?<BR> <BR>I want to have the users map and
dynamic layers persist throughout their MgSession, but with the current code
when the users accesses the main page it always creates a new map
(map.Create()), rather then doing a check and a map.Open(). When I
changed this code, the application performs as expected and loads in the proper
map for the users MgSession. <BR> <BR>Any help is much
appreciated.<BR> <BR>Thanks,<BR>-scott<BR><BR></BODY></HTML>
