Adding lines to GetCapabilites document

[Kralidis,Tom [Burlington]]

Paul,
 
If your extension is eclusive to time, you can use WMS's TIME parameter,
which MapServer supports (see the WMS Server howto).

Else Frank's suggestion of the mapscript wrappers is the best bet.

document
	
	
	For a particular application that uses my WMS, I need to add
something like the following lines to the GetCapabilities document
generated by Mapserver:
	 
	<Dimension name="CurrencyStartDate" units="date"/>
	<Extent name="CurrencyStartDate">2000-01-01T00:00:00</Extent>
		<Dimension name="CurrencyEndDate" units="date"/>
	<Extent name="CurrencyEndDate">2010-12-31T23:59:59</Extent>
	 
	This is valid in the GetCapabilities document but I cannot find
a way to get Mapserver to generate this information. At present I am
using a static document that has been hand modified but this is not a
very satisfactory long term solution.
	 
	I am currently running Mapserver 4.8.3 but I can upgrade if
necessary.
	 
	Any
