[mapguide-users] Thematic maps on Non Spatial Data

[nanda kishor]

@Zac Spitzer,

Is it possible, that a customized widget can be developed; In that a
non-spatial table can be joined with the spatial layer(@ client_end) from
the final table, a thematic map can be generated and later it get displayed.

Thanks in Advance,

--Nanda Kishor
