The itemnquery does not work

[Fawcett, David]

Holmand, 

It looks like you were using the old syntax for queries, with filter.  Randy is right, you need to use qlayer, qitem and qstring.  

Looking at your form variables, try:  

<input type="hidden" name="qlayer" value="Ciudades">
<input type="hidden" name="qitem" value="nombre">
<input type="text" name="qstring" size="30">   
<input type="radio" name="mode" value="itemnquery">
<input type="submit" value="Consultar">


You should remove FILTER and FILTERITEM from your layer definition.

David.

Been a while since i set up a query but it looks like you are missing the qitem, and qstring

<input type="hidden" name="savequery" value="true">
<input type="hidden" name="qitem" value="column in database">

<input type="TEXT" size="30" name="qstring" value=""> collects string to pass to query
