Query map

Has anyone worked out how to get the querymap stuff working yet. I am using
V3.3 (downloaded today)

I have tried to copy the info at
http://arachnid.dnr.state.mn.us/ms_test/itemquery/test.html but I must be
missing something. My map file is attached below. When I query the map a
reference to an image is substituted into the returned template but no image
is actually created. I have no idea how this is meant to be setup so any
hints would be appreciated

On another topic, has anyone had any luck with relational joins. I can get a
join to work no worries (as per attached map file - the relevant section is
commented out) but it is only returning the first row of the joined table
(ie one to one) even though the type is set to multiple.


Thanks
Ross
