[mapserver-users] HTML Legends - what's Class TITLE?

[Lime, Steve D (DNR)]

Title is a class level parameter that was supposed to hold legend text instead of having to use the class name. That way class names could be more friendly when doing things like changing parameters via URL. That functionality got lost in the shuffle though and hasn't been completely implemented (although it is a 6.0 planned addition). That's why you don't see it referenced in the CLASS documentation. You can ignore it...

Sorry for any confusion.

I'm still beating the "HTML legends" feature into a shape I can understand and now I think I understand most of the online documentation. Also, I think I have accomplished my immediate goal of creating a working layer control that shows you a sample graphic of the layer, has a checkbox to turn the layer on/off, and allows you to collapse and hide layers and classes under their group names and can hold up to 100 layers and classes in one clip. So thanks to everyone who helped me sort this out. Your generosity is very much appreciated!

But I have one more question... on the page http://mapserver.org/output/html_legend.html under the "Supported Tags" table in the section titled "CLASS block" they refer to [leg_class_title] that returns the CLASS TITLE value. Looking into the mapfile reference, I can't find any description for TITLE in either CLASS or LAYER. Can anyone clue me in on this --what it is and what's it for?

TIA,
- Bill Thoen
