Re: [MAPSERVER-USERS] Highlighting query results

[shurhen]

Thank you, Steve!

I tried your way, but I have not got result - selected object still remains same as others. 
I've added these lines in map-file but there are no results:

QUERYMAP
  COLOR 0 0 255
  STATUS ON
  STYLE HILITE
END

What I've missed?


2BrainDrain: Thank you, I'll try and your way too.
