Making a "Search"

[Delfos, Jacob]

Jojin,
 
There is a widget in Chameleon called "LocateByAttribute", that has this
functionality for shapefiles (not for other types yet). You may want to
give that a try. See this demo-page: 
http://geo.maunsell.com/chameleondemo/index.phtml

This widget is not in the MS4W package, but in the Chameleon CVS.

I have CC'd your e-mail to the Chameleon list, to which your future
Chameleon questions may be better addressed.

Regards,

Jacob

	Hello everyone. I'm new to MapServer. 
	 
	How do I make a "search" functionality in MapServer that will
search for the attribute of a layer (or layers) and when it is found,
the object in the layer that has the attribute being searched will be
highlighted in the map?
	 
	By the way, I am using MS4W with Chameleon. 
	 
	Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks in advance.
