[mapserver-users] Getting attributes from a shapefile from Mapscript/PhP (Mapserver)

[Carlos Ruiz]

Once you have the shape object, you can access the associative array values to retrieve the desired value by attribute name.

 The values array is an associative array with the attribute values forthis shape. It is set only on shapes obtained from layer->getShape().The key to the values in the array is the attribute name, e.g.$population = $shape->values["Population"];

Hi,

Thank you. Now, I am able to retrieve the layer attributes using the getItems() method.

Now I want to retrieve the values under each attribute for that layer.

For example, want to retrieve the values under the attribute, Name of a layer by name "states".

Thanks & Regards,

Hi,

I have a shapefile/vector file as Layer in the .map file. 

Now, I want to get all the attributes of that shapefile in my Mapscript/PhP and display them on the browser.

For example, a shapefile has the attributes as Name, Type, Width. Now I want to get these attributes from that layer dynamically from my PhP/Mapscript code.

So please let me know how to get attributes from a shapefile from Mapscript/PhP.

Thanks & Regards,
