              I’m not sure, but think I know what is happening on the example you supplied, as I do the same thing. In order to suppress the path information normally visible in the browser address bar, the developer has implemented a simple ASP script which passes the mapserver arguments through. Below is the script I use, which I got from either this list, or one of the Mapserver support sites (can’t remember, but I’m not taking credit
.).
   
  Hope this helps explain a bit, but I don’t think it is actually what you want to do; I think you are looking to build the map file on the fly, correct?

        Case "GET"  strRequest = Request.QueryString
        Case "POST" strRequest = Request.Form
      End Select
      
      strURL = "http://web.address/mapserv.exe?map=C:\path\to\mapfile\map.map&" & strRequest
      
      Dim objHTTP
      Set objHTTP = Server.CreateObject("MSXML2.ServerXMLHTTP")
      objHTTP.open "GET", strURL, false
      objHTTP.send ""
      Response.ContentType = objHTTP.getResponseHeader("content-type")
      Response.BinaryWrite objHTTP.responseBody
      Set objHTTP = Nothing

Subject: [UMN_MAPSERVER-USERS] replace MAP extension with ASPX or ASP

   
    Hello:

     

    Is it possible to replace the map extension with aspx or asp? I have seen an example (http://www2.tetonwyo.org/mapserver/) where the map file is called map.asp. I tried to create an aspx file like:

     

    <%Response.Write ("Map")%>.....and all the line for a map file, but when I try to replace the http://localhost/scripts/mapserv.exe?map=map.map.... with http://localhost/scripts/mapserv.exe?map=map.aspx I get an regualar expression error

     

    I want to be use ASPX or ASP to create the lines code from a basic map file

     

    Does anyone can give me an example?

     

    Thank you

     

    William
