[mapserver-users] Web Client

[Brent Wood]

I recommend you use QGIS as a desktop client to test the WxS server setup, it is simple & robust, and helps get things working well server side before you start on the web client. Alternatives include uDIG and gvSIG. 


To build the web client, try Openlayers or Leaflet. For PHP you can use the Mapscript that comes with Mapserver.


Welcome to the QGIS project!OpenLayers: Home
Leaflet — an open-source JavaScript library for interactive maps
PHP MapScript — MapServer 6.4.1 documentation

Hi,

First of all I would like to say "Hello" to everybody as I am a
      newbie of both MapServer and the mailing list.  I need some
      suggestions about the web based client to send WMS and WFS
      requests to Map Server to display map and database records.

I had a look at the internet and found some projects. But it takes
      unbelievable long time to read all documentations to see if it
      provides a few things I need. The basic functions I need are:

- Possible to list layers
- Solid zoom in/out functions 
- Design/icons and display functions customizable
- Preferably written in PHP (not a must)

I won't say no if there's one provides more functions :)

So I wanted to ask which clients are good enough just like a daily
      chat with friends :) I hope I am not breaking any rules of the group at the first day.

Any suggestions?

Many thanks in advance
Ceyhun
