Hi all
I am sure this has been hashed about before.
I am using mapserver 4.4.1 a client is using ESRI product GisServer. My
capabilities document does not list text/xml as a feature response, but
the client's getfeatureinfo request always come across with a
&INFO_FORMAT=text/xml. The response from my mapserv can be seen at
https://glfc.cfsnet.nfis.org/mapserver/cgi-bin/wms_layer02100?SERVICE=WM
S&VERSION=1.1.1&REQUEST=GetFeatureInfo&LAYERS=g6181&STYLES=&SRS=EPSG:432
6&BBOX=-145,12.4713876967096,-50,117.52861230329&FORMAT=image/png&HEIGHT
=773&WIDTH=699&TRANSPARENT=FALSE&BGCOLOR=0xFFFFFF&QUERY_LAYERS=g6181&INF
O_FORMAT=text/xml&FEATURE_COUNT=50&X=351&Y=497&EXCEPTIONS=application/vn
d.ogc.se_xml
The client seems to have no idea how to controll the software from their
end so I am tring to find out if if I can provide an acceptable
response. Does mapserver support INFO_FORMAT=text/xml and if so at what
version? If not I will try to intercept the request and format a
correct response, but I hate doing something that has already been done
before.
Thanks in advance
