[mapserver-users] PHP Mapscript $map->imagetype ??

[Stephen Woodbridge]

Hi mapscript developers,

Is the the $map->imagetype attribute supported in mapscript? 
It doesn't seem to be supported :( 
If not, could you please add it to your list of enhancements.

There is no easy way to figure out what file extension should be used
without passing that info along to mapscript. For example, the
legendicons utility generates a bunch of icons, then later in mapscript
you want to build links to the appropriate icon, you need to be able to
construct the icon's filename. Its extension is based on imagetype!

Thanks,
  -Steve W.
