[Geomoose-users] GeoMoose Map embed in webpage

Tue Apr 12 10:18:47 EDT 2011

Hey Rick,

Sorry, I totally didn't mean to snub you on this.  I'm just bonkers busy between this an other projects.

What you'll need to do is hand-craft the WMS requests with OpenLayers.

testLayer = new OpenLAyers.Layer.WMS("WRC WMS",
"/cgi-bin/mapserv.exe",
{
layers: "county_borders",
transparent: "true",
format: "image/png",
"map" : "... your mapfile path ..."
},
{
isBaseLayer: false,
singleTile: true
});

So, really, this has nothing to do with GeoMOOSE and is just some OL coding.  If there was some sponsorship for a GeoMOOSE embeded version I could be talked into it but right now ... that would require funding or a very convincing argument that I should find it really really interesting.

   testLayer = new OpenLayers.Layer.WMS("WRC WMS", "http://gis.wrc.mnsu.edu/mnriver", {layers:"borders"});

>>Hi all,
>> 
>>I was wondering if it is possible to embed either the GeoMoose map into a webpage or somehow use Mapserver to embed the map on a webpage?  I am looking for something similar to how Google allows people to embed Google Maps into a webpage.   I would only need the map and navigation controls on the map.  Is this at all possible?
