[mapguide-users] RE: Working with the current selection

[Berdel, Brian]

Thanks for the response, but how would I reference the $CurrentSelection
parameter in asp.net?

The way to make it work for both the AJAX viewer and the DWF viewer is
to have the client send the current selection to your server-side
script, instead of having the server script trying to get the selection
from the session repository.

If your script is invoked from a web layout command 'Invoke URL', have
the current selection sent to the script by adding in Studio the
parameter $CurrentSelection to the command. If your script is invoked by
custom Javascript code, have this code retrieve the current selection
with GetSelectionXML() and add a parameter to your URL to send this
selection to the server. In this case be careful to use a POST request
and not a GET, as the size of the selection might exceed the maximum
length supported for a GET request (usually about 1K). Look at the
Submit() method in FormFrame, which makes it easy to do a POST request.

But what if we want to make it work in DWF Viewer. Is there any
workaround ?
