Feature info

[Bart van den Eijnden]

Hi,

Mapserver does support WMS GetFeatureInfo.

AFAIK, MapInfo WMS client does *NOT* support GetFeatureInfo.

So what you want would not be possible. But if you want to be sure, ask MapInfo if they support WMS GetFeatureInfo by now.

Best regards,
Bart

Hello List

We have been using mapserver for a few months, our  main purpose was to just
display and render maps.

Question: Can mapserver show feature(layer) information as compared too that
of mapinfo.

using Mapinfo 7.8 under the menu tools (I) the user is offered
information pretaining too objects and, postions within the concern map by
means of selection(mouse click).

can the same task be accomplish using mapinfo an having a mapserver-WMS with
native *.tab files(ogr)?.
