[mapserver-users] formatting query and identify results

[Brent Fraser]

Mark,

  I think mapserver will pass Javascript, but the templates must be named
using a .html (and note the lower case) extension.  I had a problem with
using upper case .HTML in mapserver 5.2.1
(http://trac.osgeo.org/mapserver/ticket/784).

  Depending on the target of the html/javascript, triggering it could get
tricky.  If its a new window, then onload, etc will work.  If its an
AJAX framework like GeoMoose then I'm not so sure.  With Geomoose 1.6 I
used some of the input validation tools to do some calculation, but I
haven't looked into similar capability within Geomoose 2.2.

Best Regards,
Brent Fraser
