Marin,

I am doing something similiar to this.  I am using dynamic expressions to
change the map file parameters on the fly.  This is done in the query
template file.  By using something like this:  <img src=
cgi-bin/mapserv?map=mymap.map&map_layer_1_class_1_expression=([attribute]
eq somevalue)&mode=map>

This is one way to approach it, but I am sure there are plenty others.

Hi there,

I have point shape file (places with coordinates) and I would like to
search for place name and after that to draw on the map marker (icon)
with label - I don't want to draw the other places and the other labels
for this shape file - I'd like to draw just the desired place and label
it. How to do it?
QUERYMAP just changes the color of the selected features.
I send a picture - one example of what I need to do.
So any idea how-to?
