[Mapserver-users] Re: Help please with Query problem

I am still missing something obvious.

I tried implementing the solution Steve Woodbridge suggested but I encountered a problem.

If I create two different layers based on the same SHP file, how can it make sure the results don't overlap with one another?  I would need to filter both SHP files based on the contents of two fields -- DATA_CODE and OCCUPATION

So... 

Layer1 would be filtered on
DATA_CODE = RES and OCCUPATION = plumbers

Layer2 would be filtered on 
DATA_CODE = COM and OCCUPATION = plumbers

How do I express that within PHP/Mapscript?  

The full code I am using is at:

All help greatly appreciated!!

Peter
