Hi
My name is Oscar and I am working with jBox and Mapserver, but I have a
problem. I need to select same points, but it is'nt a select within box,
I need to be a select within polygon. I don't know how to modify the
applet for this action?. Can you help me ? Thanks and you excuse my bad
handling for english, good bye.

Hello Oscar,

I have forwarded your question to the MapServer-Users mailing list. I
have changed the subject line to "interactively select within
polygon". You can (and should) join this very helpful list at:
   http://mapserver.gis.umn.edu/community/mailinglists/mapserver-users/

jBox does not support selecting points within a user-drawn polygon.
You could add the ability fairly easily (extend the measure tool) but
you would still need to have mapserver process the polygon because the
actual selection of points would take place on the server.

I think this would require the use of mapscript, I think there are
other on the MapServer-Users list who would be better able to answer
your question than me.

Regards,
Rich
