[mapserver-users] Persistent Selection

[Ryan, Adam]

I understand that.  But how do you then tell map server to simultaneously
pan (mode = "browse") and also keep querying (mode = "query") for the
[feature_value]?

The basic theory is to add the selected item to a hidden form field to
your template, like:

<input type="hidden" name="feature_name" value="[feature_value]">

in your template. Where feature_name and [feature_value] are the
appropriate mapserver/template names.
