Any help appreciated!! - Fwd: 5.0 - use of qstring_validation_pattern for attribute queries

[Mike Saunt]

Hi All

For completeness I thought I'd let people know - I've got this solved now -
I wasn't on the 5.0 release version (doh!) and map file is like this to let
any query through

          METADATA
              qstring_validation_pattern '.'
          END


Thanks
Mike
