[Geomoose-users] Using Mapserver Filter

[Rafe Hargrove]

I would like to pass a parameter to mapserver's filter command so that I can filter out records for a given ownerkey at startup.

 

A separate Java/JSP application is used to identify the owner for which we would like to see a map of owned properties.  I would like to click on a URL which opens GeoMoose with the ownerkey already set and used as a filter in MapServer.  

 

Any ideas how best to do this in GeoMoose?

 

Thanks for any and all help,

Rafe
