Joost, 

If you are trying to swap templates using URL substitution, you need to
create a TEMPLATEPATTERN in the MAP object of your MAP file.  Go to the
wiki migration guide: 
http://mapserver.gis.umn.edu/cgi-bin/wiki.pl?MigrationGuide

Scroll down to DATAPATTERN and TEMPLATEPATTERN.  There is also a link
to a post with more information.  Essentially, in the TEMPLATEPATTERN,
you specify a regular expression to apply to the name of the TEMPLATE
file that you want to use.  

David.

Hi all,

I am somewhat confused about how templates are handled in 4.0.  In 3.6
it
was fairly straight forward to specify a template in the URL.  For
some
reason, I can not get this to work in 4.0.  Any suggestions?  I have
looked
in the history.txt and the latest documentation and have not been able
to
find a concrete example.  Could someone provide an example?

Once again, thank you in advance!
