WMS Getfeatureinfo Filter Request Problem

[Howard Mark]

I have an existing application that depends on the data format from the GETFEATUREINFO request. I know this works - I've done it before. I just forget how :(

You might be better off using OGC:WFS for this to do custom filtering to
get *data* back:

http://server_name/script_name?version=1.0.0&service=WFS&request=GetFeat
ure&map=map
_name&typename=ikonos&bbox=-80.7779,24.7364,-80.458,25.0113&X=166&Y=142&
filter=<Filter><PropertyIsEqualTo><PropertyName>some_field_name</Propert
yName><Literal>5</Literal></PropertyIsEqualTo></Filter>&

&FEATURE_COUNT=3000&ikonos_filteritem=MCCA_FULL&ikonos_filter='/5/'

I've also tried
&ikonos_filter=/5/
&ikonos_filter=5
.......

I get a full set of features without filtering.


TIA for any help rendered!
