Jay,<div><br></div><div>I am not exactly sure how the params work in GeoMoose. One tip in general to be able to isolate the problem to either GeoMoose or MapServer is to look at the actual requests that are being made to MapServer. One of the easiest ways to do this is to either use the FireBug extension in FireFox or the Javascript Console in Chrome. With this take a look at the URL that is being sent to MapServer and see what is in the parameter &LASTWEEK=.</div>

Subject: Re: [mapserver-users] Expressions</p>
<p> </p>
<p>In EXPRESSIONS you can evaluate any of the following:</p>
<p> </p>
<p>1. Regular expressions treating the value as a string</p>
<p>2. numeric expressions using booleans like
==,<,>,<=,>=</p>
<p>3. string expressions like ==, !=, and I think strlen()</p>
<p> </p>
<p>So if you converted you dates into a format like YYYYMMDD
then it would </p>
<p>be easy to use a numeric expression like:</p>
<p> </p>
<p>EXPRESSION ('[dateValues]' > '%STARTDATE%' &&
'[dateValues]' < '%ENDDATE%')</p>
<p> </p>
<p>or</p>
<p> </p>
<p>EXPRESSION ('[dateValues]' > '%STARTDATE%')</p>
<p> </p>
<p>where STARTDATE is the YYYYMMDD value of two weeks ago
and ENDDATE would </p>
<p>be in the same format and allow you to extract record
betwee any two </p>
<p>start and end dates.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>Or you might be able to figure out a complex regular
expression the </p>
<p>represents the last two weeks like:</p>
<p> </p>
<p>EXPRESSION ('[dateValues]' =~ '/%LASTTWOWEEKS%/')</p>
<p> </p>
<p>I'm not sure what you would need for the regular
expression.</p>
