Hi all, i got this working to query a layer and am able to display the result too ... the url looks like

http://localhost/mapserv.exe?MODE=map&MAP=c:/Inetpub/states.map&LAYERS=states&filter_id=SD

but what i am trying now is to pass the projection id in the url, but i guess mapserver doesnt support this form of variable substitution. Is there anyother way to pass the projection id from the url ...

Thanks for your effort and time ..

Kris, 

This may not quite work, but it should be closer. Try something like:

http://pathtomapserv.exe?MODE=itemnquerymap&LAYERS=layer1&QLAYER=layer1&QITEM=colname&QString=('[colname]'='value') 

David.

Hello all, 
I was trying to query one of the layers from a shape file in the url, i am used map as the mode and gave the layer name for Qlayer, column name for Qitem and QString. Part of the URL looks like

http://pathtomapserv.exe?MODE=map&LAYERS=layer1&QLAYER=layer1&QITEM=colname&QString=("colname=value")

the map is displayed but it didnt filter the layer with the given querystring variables ....

Is there something missing, can anyone suggest with something ...

Thanks for your effort and time ....
