The closest thing to a definitive guide is at
http://mapserver.gis.umn.edu/doc36/cgi-reference.html
<http://mapserver.gis.umn.edu/doc36/cgi-reference.html>   
 
Most everything you need to know is there.  For more advanced topics, this
list (including the archives

( http://mapserver.gis.umn.edu/cgi-bin/wiki.pl
<http://mapserver.gis.umn.edu/cgi-bin/wiki.pl>  ) are the best resources.
When in doubt, just ask.

I have been doing research on Mapserver and I am mainly interested in the
CGI program interface modes and variables.  I haven't been able to find a
definative guide that explains the required parameters for each map mode.  

 

For example how do I know what variables are required after specifying
something like ..mode=querymap.. 

 

Can anyone point me in the right direction for this?
