[mapguide-users] Digitize point function Mapguide 2.1

Mon Oct 4 16:10:07 EDT 2010

Hello everyone,

I have figured out how to get the Digitize Point function to work in
mapguide, with the following code. By a selecting the screen with an
"onclick option" in java. 

But I need to post the results to another php, cfm, or whatever page to
submit the results to a mapguide layer or spatial table. Does anyone
know how or have an example of how this is done.
