[mapserver-users] Mapplet Problem

[Doug Braeckel]

Tom,

Yes, I've printed and read the HOW-TO, good stuff.  I've tried every
combination of [host] [port] [img] I can imagine, and I don't get any errors
in the status bar.  This thing's driving me nuts.  You can check it out at:
http://www.duvalCountyNPDES.net/

Click the gold NPDES logo at the top to get to the map.  I've included a
table of the variables at the bottom of the page.  

The raw CGI version of this worked fine.  I'd just like to use Javascript to
get this to function and look like our ArcIMS version.

Thanks for any help you can provide,

Doug

You need the hostname.  The mapplet requires fully qualified URLs.

1./ Have you check the mapplet-howto on the UMN MapServer website?

2./ Have you tried:  http://[host]/[img]

3./ Do you get any errors in the status bar?
