[Mapserver-users] Dyanic Point with Zoom

Wed Nov 5 16:21:44 EST 2003

When I remove $image=$map->draw(); the point draws but it is not located
in the center and my other layer does not show up, which does show with
the $map->draw().
Is there something wrong with my map file?

MAP
	NAME TEST
	STATUS ON
	SIZE 600 450
	SYMBOLSET ../etc/symbols.sym
	EXTENT -141.017718 41.679738 -52.619173 83.115060
	UNITS DD	
	SHAPEPATH "../data"
	IMAGECOLOR 204 204 204
	FONTSET ../etc/fonts.txt

	WEB
		TEMPLATE MapTemplate.html
		IMAGEPATH "/tmp/ms_tmp/" 
	END
#Tab layers
	LAYER
		NAME prv
  		TYPE POLYGON
		CONNECTIONTYPE OGR
		CONNECTION "../data/prv.tab"
		STATUS DEFAULT
 		CLASS
	   		OUTLINECOLOR 0 255 0
	   		COLOR 204 255 153
		END
	END # Layer

	LAYER 
		NAME "point_layer" 
		TYPE point 
		STATUS on 
		CLASS 
			NAME 'point_layer' 
			STYLE 
				COLOR 0 0 255 
				SIZE 27 
				SYMBOL 'circle' 
			END 
		END 
	END

END

Brian,
There is really no need to call $pt_layer->draw().  You already called
$pt->draw().  Just a guess, but try removing the layer->draw().

Actually, now that I look at, no need to call $map->draw() either. You
should just call $map->prepareImage(), $pt->draw(), then
$image->saveWebImage().
