I am using a bunch of datasets projecting them to 10TM using MAP =
parameters.
I want a feature search to load a detail map showing the selected =
feature, zoomed to its extents In the past, when all my data was in UTM, =
this was easy, as I could just load the map applying the shpext value to =
the imgext parameter.
However, now the shpext returned from the query is in lat/long (due to =
the nature of that dataset), but my map is in 10TM, so the shpext value =
is not valid in this case.

Does anyone know if I can use the shpext in this way? (eg. can I =
"project" the coordinates the way I project individual layers?)

Thanks,
Chris
