[Mapserver-users] Bounding Box options in Mapserver

[James Wharfe]

Hello list,

I was wondering if anybody had any examples of a bounding box function
written in Perl Mapscript? What I want to do is allow the user to draw a
rectangle on the Mapserver map image downloaded to their browser, and have
the extents of that rectangle passed back to the Mapserver application in
order to render a new map image based on the user-defined bounding box. If
anyone has hints, pointers or even code that would be great!.

I have looked at the other options just in case this can't be done ie. Jbox
or Bbox. Bearing in mind that I'm trying to avoid using Javascript (am I
just making things difficult here??) what do folks think the more
appropriate solution?

Thanks alot,
James.
