[Mapserver-users] how to put php code inside a CGI template

[woodbri at swoodbridge.com]

Luca,

You can't really do this because it is not the way things work. The 
browser makes a request to the server. The server then handles the 
request by having the appropriate server side application like GCI 
mapserv OR php to process the request. and then it sends the results 
back to the browser.

What you are trying to do is send a request to CGI mapserv to process 
the templates and the send the results to PHP instead of the browser 
to be processed again INSTEAD of sending the results back to the 
browser.

If you want to work in PHP then you should not be using CGI mapserv, 
you need to rebuild your whole application to be written using 
PHP/mapscript.

Hope this helps,
