querying two attributes at once

[Stephen Woodbridge]

OK, my bad! I'll try to correct and clarify.

There are a bunch of query function in mapscript:
queryByPoint
queryByRect
queryByShape
queryByFeature
queryByAttributes  -- not available via CGI interface??

If you are trying to select items by there attributes you probably want
to use queryByAttributes but this does not seem to be available in my
CGI reference doc. The other strategy would be to set up a FILTER and
then queryByRect to cover the area you are interested in. Both of these
methods may be very slow depending on the amount of data you are look at.

the other queryBy* function expect spatial coordinates (like lat/lon) as
input.

Sorry if I confused anyone.
