- <p>This dynamic map is being generated in "browse" mode. Click
- on any point on the map and see what happens.
- </p>
- <p>Both of these maps use the same mapfile definitions. The difference
- is that the second map (the dynamically created one) relies on HTML
- form for interactivity. If you look at how this page is linked from
- the previous page, you'll see that it isn't the same as the previous
- examples. This page is what's called, in MapServer terms, an HTML
- template. You will learn more about HTML templates in section 2.
- </p>
- <hr>
- <p>have a look at the "form" block within this page (right
- click on your browser and select "view source" or something
- similar):
- </p>
- <pre>
- <!-- START OF MAPSERVER FORM -->
- <form name="mapserv" method="GET" action="/cgi-bin/mapserv.exe">
- <!-- HIDDEN MAPSERVER CGI VARIABLES -->
- <input type="hidden" name="map" value="[map]">
- <input type="hidden" name="imgext" value="[mapext]">
- <input type="hidden" name="imgxy" value="199.5 149.5">
- <input type="hidden" name="zoom" value="1">
- <input type="hidden" name="mode" value="browse">
-
- <div align="center">
- <table border="1" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0">
- <tr>
- <td>
- <!-- THE INTERACTIVE, DYNAMICALLY CREATED MAP --
- <input type="image" name="img" src="[img]"
- width="400" height="300">
- </td>
- </tr>
- </table>
- </div>
- </form></pre>
- <p>This block executes the MapServer CGI program
- ("/cgi-bin/mapserv.exe") each time a user clicks on the map.
- The map is actually another form "input", represented here by
- the line:</p>
- <pre><input type="image" name="img" src="[img]" width="400" height="300"></pre>
- <p>The items in square brackets ([map], [mapext], and
- [img]) are what's known as MapServer tags--these are MapServer
- CGI variables and they get replaced by the MapServer CGI program when it
- reloads. The tag [map] is a placeholder for the mapfile path
- so it's replaced with "[map]" when MapServer runs. The tag
- [mapext] is replaced with the current map extent,
- "[mapext]", and the [img] tag is replaced with the
- path to the image the MapServer CGI program creates, "[img]". Go ahead check the IMAGEPATH (/ms4w/tmp/) for the existence of this image.</p>
-
- <p>The hidden variable "mode" with the value "browse"
- tells the CGI program that it needs to create and dump an image in the
- "tmp" directory. This image is then referenced as [img] and
- this is what you see on your browser.</p>
- <hr>
- <p align="left">Now, have a look at the mapfile:<br>
-
- <iframe width="100%" src="/tutorial/example1-9.map"></iframe></p>
-
- <hr>
- <p>There's really only one thing that's been added to the mapfile:</p>
- <p>TEMPLATE 'example1-9.html'<br>
- This tells MapServer to use the page "example1-9.html" as a
- template file. MapServer will process this file and replace the tags it
- encounters before sending it to the web browser. This is how the next
- two sections in this tutorial works.</p>
- <hr>
- <p>This marks the end of Section 1. I hope you leave this section with enough
- knowledge on how things are set in a MapServer MapFile. I can't stress
- enough the importance of keeping the <a href="http://mapserver.gis.umn.edu/doc/cgi-reference.html">MapServer
- MapFile Reference</a> open as you create your own mapfile and application.
- Without it, I wouldn't have gone very far with this tutorial.. For a hierarchical
- view of the mapfile objects and keywords, please have a look at the <a href="http://vega.unm.edu/mapserver_workshop/reference/mapfile-reference-table.html">reference
- page</a> from Earth Data Analysis Center (EDAC) at the University of New
- Mexico.</p>
