[mapguide-users] [ZS1] Shareable markups

[mrsyer]

well more specifically im having trouble creating the invoke url and getting
the 'markupmain' to show up when i click markup in my dropdown tool menu.
Ive created the invoke url and the additional parameters are set just like
the 'redding.mgp' example. the developers guide says php requires an
additional step and requires the 'constants.php'  but im not sure what to do
with it? thanks. JS.
