[Geomoose-users] per user layers

[Dan Little]

Replace getmapbook.php.  You'll need to create a login solution, of which there are many and varied.  Essentially it goes this like:


1. Create something like "/gis/login.php" - Then if you want , have a link there for "public" or "guests"
2. login.php gets the credentials, checks them against a database or LDAP/AD, and you get a role.  PHP's session functionality makes this pretty easy.  Then login.php would forward the user to "geomoose.html" (or whatever it's called on your system)
3. getmapbook.php, probably reads a "header.xml", then for the body (map-source's and catalog) you'd write a quick for-loop that would either use a XML/DOM building utility or just some text that makes valid XML to output in the form of a mapbook, finally a "footer.xml".  The script would populate the available layers based on the auth levels of the user and I'd probably store that info in postgresql.
