[mapserver-users] problems with running the demo for mapserver II

[Oz Nahum]

Excuse me for sending another mail with this subject.

I managed to partially display a map of the data for the workshop files
The only way the application displays a map is if I choose on the main page

-- Adds dhtml rubber-band box

Other than that I get a grey box instead of a map. When I look at the
address of the gray box it looks for the map picture in:
http://localhost/cgi-bin/tmp/ITASCA12238324346226.png

however the picture is in:
/var/www/mapserver/tmp or localhost/mapserver/tmp

again, here is how I edited index.html
lines 8 - 10
 // EDIT THE NEXT 2 LINES TO MATCH YOUR SETUP
        var snippet = "IMAGEPATH 'tmp/'";
        snippet += " IMAGEURL 'tmp/'";

and line 33-44:
 <!-- EDIT THE FORM ACTION -->
    <form name="demo" method="GET" action="../cgi-bin/mapserv"
onSubmit="configure()">

      <input type="hidden" name="layer" value="lakespy2">
      <input type="hidden" name="layer" value="dlgstln2">
      <input type="hidden" name="zoomsize" value=2>
      <input type="hidden" name="map_web" value="">

      <!-- EDIT THESE HIDDEN VARIABLES -->
      <input type="hidden" name="map" value="/var/www/mapserver/itasca.map">
      <input type="hidden" name="program" value="../cgi-bin/mapserv">
      <input type="hidden" name="root" value="/mapserver">

Do I need to change something in other file so it would work in the right
way?

I hope this is more clear, and helps to solve my problem.

thanks, Oz.

           It isn't hard to do
           Nothing to kill or die for
           And no religion too
           Imagine all the people
           Living life in peace
