That should have been   &mapsize=187+121

Rebecca,

Could you also add &mapsize+187+121  to your URL

That may take care of the size issue.

David.

Hey everybody,

I'm having two problems with a modified querymap I'm working with.  In
an attempt to recenter to the queried feature, I followed Steve Lime's
advice in a past listserv post, which was:

        Just centering is easy. In you're query template you might
have
        something like:

        <!-- the image -->
        <img src="/cgi-bin/mapserv?map=[map]&mapxy=[shpmidx]+[shpmidy]
        &scale=250000[get_layers]&mode=map">

The result of this is almost exactly what I was looking for, except
for
two things.

1. The querymap map size takes the main map's size, instead of the
smaller size I put in the QUERYMAP part of the .map file (see below).
How can I regain access to my original querymap specifications?

2. The other thing I'd like to have is my selected polygon hilite.
Like
my first question, the hilite feature only works when I don't change
the
img src tag.  Is there a way I can have my cake and eat it too?

Thanks for helping,

~Becky
