PHP Mapscript OwsRequestObj & loadparams()

[Armin Burger]

Hi

the OWSRequest object for PHP Mapscript has a slight problem at least 
under Linux. As already mentioned by another user some weeks ago, the 
definition as described in the how-to

$request = ms_newOwsRequestObj();
$request->loadparams();

is also not working for me (Linux Debian and Ubuntu). There is no error 
in PHP neither Apache, just the page returned is completely empty as 
soon as the 'loadparams()' is applied.

For the ones interested in a fast workaround to use the really nice and 
flexible Mapscript OWS interface via PHP I used the following

$request = ms_newOwsRequestObj();

foreach ($_GET as $k=>$v) {
     $request->setParameter($k, $v);
}

This worked fine for me and the WMS service could be accessed by all 
clients I tested (all seem to use the GET request).
