[Geomoose-users] Security and GeoMoose

[Brent Fraser]

  I'm implementing Geomoose on a site that uses server-side scripting (asp) to check credentials and deliver content.  So instead of allowing direct access to statedemo.html (or mapserv.exe), there's a statedemo.asp in a different web directory that reads statedemo.html from the filesystem and sends it to the browser (via IIS).  Since the ASP is in a different directory, the relative URLs in the GeoMoose are invalid.  

  It would be nice if there was a way to easily set something like "GEOMOOSE_ROOT" in the XML (an enhancement for GM2?).

  BTW, I was able to solve the problem using a rewrite ISAPI filter on IIS (the equivalent of apache's mod_rewrite).

Thanks!
