Hi,
thanks for the answers.
I have solved the error closing the tag <input type="hidden" name="program"
value="/cgi-bin/mapserv"> on the inizalization file.
To change method from POST to GET don't resolve nothing if I have
understood, the difference bettween POST and GET, would be that in the
first case the attributes that you pass are visible, instread with POST
they aren't visible in the map url.
