Trouble with queryby...

[Frank Broniewski]

Hello

I am experiencing problems with the query-methods of phpmapscript. I always
get the errormessage: "Error in msQueryByPoint(): No matching record(s)
found."

My querycode is: 
  $MapObj->queryByRect($myPixelRectObj);
     and
  $MapObj->queryByPoint($myPointObj, MS_SINGLE, 0);

I controlled already the coordinates of $myPixelRectObj which are ok. The
layer which I query is default off in the mapfile, but turned on later
dynamically. It is displayed correctly in my map. I use the rosa applet to
interact with the user.

When I change my code for the pointquery to the following:
    $myLayer = $MapObj->getLayerByName("Points");
    $myLayer->set("status",1);
    $myLayer->queryByPoint($myPointObj, MS_SINGLE, 0);
I get a result. But if I comment out the line $myLayer->set("status",1); I
get also the above mentioned error. The query with queryByRect just won't
work with this workaround.

My question is now: How do I get my queries working with the $map Mapobject?
Does anyone see a reason, why the layerquery works for point, but not for
rect? Is there a particular order in building the map when I want to query?
Like first draw the map then query? Make layers active (status = on) then
query? But they are already drawn on the queried map?! Why can I not query
the mapobject but  a single layer?

I work with Apache 2.0.50 on Windows XP Home and php 4.3.8.
