Steve,

I am not sure what level of integration your are looking for.  There
are some people on this list who have done .asp MapServer projects,
including a wrapper I believe.  Hopefully they will speak up.

Depending on your needs, one easy solution is to use .asp to
dynamically build a http request string to a MapServer Server
(mode=map).  This string is then used as the source of an image on your
page.  I do this with ColdFusion all the time.

It doesn't allow you to query the image, zoom, etc.  But it is a great,
cheap, and easy way to add simple dynamic map components to a Web app.

David.

Hi,

Is there a way to mix asp and mapserver?

I need to access a database using asp, and then use some of the reults
to
create a GIF using mapserver, and then pass the gif file name created
to
another html page.

The problem is that I cannot seem to mix mapserver and asp.

Thanks
