Hi everyone,
Having recently experimented with the DHTML UMN site, I have to say
that it is a very elegant solution with clear documentation within the
source code.
So far i have been able to pass arguments on the URL to the DHTML
interface such that:
mapserver_page.html?variable=value
where 'variable' and its value are accessible to the JS code within the
DHTML page.
However, I cannot seem to figure out how to get these variables passed
on to the mapserver CGI when it is called.
For example, I would like to call the DHTML page with some parameters:
mapserver_page.html?county=CA_19
..which are then passed on to the mapserver CGI:
/path/to/cgi/mapserv?county=CA_19
is there currently any way of doing this?
thanks in advance, and thanks to the mapserver folks for the excellent
DHTML examples!
