[mapserver-users] queries

[Stefan Stern]

Hi all,

I use a dataset of points (.shp) that looks similar to this:

id     | group  | x_ccord   | y_coord
T1     | T      | 1234      | 12234
T2     | T      | 4321      | 4321
F1     | F      | 4566      | 3211

I created a mapfile that displays all points.

Now I want to display just certain points according to "id" or "group".
e.g. "display only T1" or "display all T".

My first idea is to write a temporary mapfile with php on the harddrive
and point mapserver to it.

Is there an other way (implemented) in mapserver? ANd if so, where can I
find some documentation about it?

Regards,
Stefan
