[Mapserver-users] using data from the submittd form within ma pserver.

[Lowther, David W]

Sreekanth,

Make a field in your previous form called "map_VILLAGE_class_expression" and
set its value to "([LOC_CODE] = whatever )".

For more info on passing variable in from the previous form see:

http://mapserver.gis.umn.edu/doc/cgi-reference.html

Hope that helps,

Dave Lowther
