[Mapserver-users] Question about <input type="image" name="img" src="[img]">

Fri Apr 25 07:36:03 PDT 2003

Hi,

I've recently started using mapserver and I'm getting persistent 
problems with displaying my rendered map images.  For some reason the 
image gets generated and put into the /tmp directory of my web server 
but it won't appear in the cgi generated web page.  

I've stripped down my test.map file and template.html file and can't 
spot the problem. Have I missed something really obvious?  Any help 
would be a useful.

I initially run the map from this link:
<A 
HREF="/cgi-bin/mapserv?map=/home/karl/ccgweb/web/richard/wms/test/test.map">Test 
map</A>

Here's my html template:
<html>
<head>
<title>Map template</title>
</head>
<body>
<form method="GET" action="/cgi-bin/mapserv">
<input type="hidden" name="map" value="[map]">
<input type="hidden" name="imgext" value="[mapext]">
<table border="1">
<tr>
<td align=center>
<input type="image" name="img" src="[img]">
</td>
</tr>
</table>
</form>
</body>
</html>

Here's test.map file
