Image Map - no picture

Mon Nov 13 11:34:29 EST 2006

Do you have a querymap object defined? Is it's status set to on?

Hello List,

I´m trying to get an imagemap with MapServer.
I checked out the hwoto on:
http://mapserver.gis.umn.edu/docs/howto/imagemaps 

but somehow I cannot get it running.

In my mapfile I wrote 
.....
LAYER
NAME         testdaten
  TYPE         POINT
  TOLERANCE   5
  STATUS       DEFAULT
    TEMPLATE "bodytemplate.html"
      HEADER "imapheader.html"
      FOOTER "imapfooter.html"

  CONNECTIONTYPE postgis
  CONNECTION "user=postgres password=******* dbname=geodaten host=localhost
(port=5432"
  DATA "the_geom from beispieltabelle"
.....

imapheader.html looks like:

<html>
<body>
<map id="mymap" name="mymap">

---------------------
imapfooter.html looks like:

<area shape="circle" coords="[shpxy precision=0 proj=image yf=",7" xf=","]"
href="http://myurl" title="[name]" alt="[name]">

---------------------
bodytemplate.html looks like:
</map>
<img name="map" src="http://localhost[img]" width="380"
height="450"></body></html>

I run the application with:

http://localhost/cgi-bin/mapserv?map=C:/Programme/Apachegroup/Apache/htdocs/ 
mapdatei.map&qlayer=testdaten&mode=nquery&searchmap=true

but I don`t get a map (in other applications witout imagemap the map-pictures
are generated without any problems).
If I watch the code in the browser, I see quite a lot area-sections
(<area shape="circle" coords="224,107,7"..........)
and in the end:
<img name="the_map" src="http://localhost/tmp/testkarte11633668963748.png"
width="380" height="450">

But in the "tmp-Directory" there is no "testkarte11633668963748.png"?
I wonder why?
Where is my mistake?

Thank you very much, Kai
