[mapserver-users] Displaying query result on the same page?

[kreshna_iceheart at yahoo.com]

I see, thanks!

Is it possible to use the same HTML file for both query and browse? The file contains both browsing parameters ([img], [layer_name], etc) and query parameters ([field_name]). 

I think I'll try it.

Warm regards,
-Kresh
