[mapserver-users] adhoc requests to the end of the WMS request within mapserver map file

[John Mitchell]

Below I have listed a sample layer section which does a WMS call to a local
geoserver and this work fine, but what I would like to now do is be able to
add to this WMS request a filter parameter (e.g.
&filter=fieldname=fieldvalue) which geoserver can accept.
How can I add adhoc requests like the filter example listed above to the end
of the WMS request when mapserver is making a WMS request?

Thanks,

John
