I'm just getting started with Mapserver and have a couple of questions.
I've got a text box that a user enters a parcel number and queries the
parcel layer.  Just like the CGI demo it is returning a zoomed image and
a cached cached.  I am wanting the return to be in the main map so that
the user is still able to use the query and zoom tools.  I would prefer
to continue using CGI and not have to delve into scripting.  I also
wanted to be able to use partial searches and haven't been able to get
that to work.  Any help would be greatly appreciated.  Thanks
