<DIV dir=ltr><FONT color=#000000>So my understand from the your many threads
this week you are using mapscript to generate mapfiles. This is cofirmed by the
clearly temporary name you've given the map file when I visited your link below:
/tmp/file6XWjI2.map.</FONT></DIV>
<DIV dir=ltr> </DIV>
<DIV dir=ltr>So why are you using mode=browse? mode=map is what you need. The
output of your cgi has the following line:</DIV>
<DIV dir=ltr> </DIV>
<DIV dir=ltr><FONT face=Arial size=2><input type="hidden" name="mode"
value="browse"></FONT></DIV>
<DIV dir=ltr> </DIV>
<DIV dir=ltr>I entered the following in my browser:</DIV>
<DIV dir=ltr> </DIV>
<DIV dir=ltr><A
href="http://mco.communityservers.com/cgi-bin/mapserv?map=/usr/local/apache/htdocs/mco.communityservers.com/htdocs/tmp/file6XWjI2.map&mode=map">http://mco.communityservers.com/cgi-bin/mapserv?map=/usr/local/apache/htdocs/mco.communityservers.com/htdocs/tmp/file6XWjI2.map&mode=map</A></DIV>
<DIV dir=ltr> </DIV>
<DIV dir=ltr>and it worked. </DIV>
<DIV dir=ltr> </DIV>
<DIV dir=ltr> </DIV>
<DIV dir=ltr>The other thing which took me a while to realize is if you're using
mapscript, you should consider the mapfile input instead of output. Once you
make this connection you won't ever use calls directly to the mapserv
executable.</DIV>

still can not figure out why when I click on a polygon I get the
error<BR>message. The map_web_template is there - everything that I have
read about<BR>to do this is there. All I want it to do is to be able to zoom in
to a<BR>polygon when someone clicks on it. What am I doing
wrong?<BR><BR>Thanks.<BR><BR>#Joseph Norris (Perl - what else is
