Map Filters

[Steve Lime]

In your second example (doesn't work), I'll ask a silly question. Are
you properly escaping the url- like the = in your filter? 

One other idea, what happens if you put that filter in the mapfile
instead of passing it?

Greetings,
 
I've been having unpredictable luck generating a map from MapServer
4.9
using "map filters" in the query string.  I don't get an error, there's
no
image produced or filename in the response.

Is there something wrong in the layer definition?
Is there something about the URL, specifically the syntax of the map
filter
parameter?

Layer in Mapfile
LAYER
 NAME "product"
 CONNECTIONTYPE postgis
 CONNECTION "user=uuuu password=xxxx dbname=ddddd host=m.m.m.m"
 DATA "geometry from coverage"
 STATUS DEFAULT
 TYPE POLYGON
 
 PROJECTION
  "init=epsg:4326"
 END

 CLASS 
    OUTLINECOLOR 255 0 0 
    SYMBOL 1
    SIZE 3
    
    LABEL
      TYPE bitmap
      SIZE large
      POSITION cc
      COLOR 0 153 0
    END
 END
 
END
