[mapserver-users] Basic Templating

Thu Aug 2 14:04:03 PDT 2012

Hi , 

  I am trying to implement templating taking the help of the mapserver
tutorial. I created my own map file, which works fine. I get the output as
desired when I use mode=map. Now I am trying to include a template for my
example. I created a new template file 'gmapNew.html' . I added the
reference to this template file in my map file. Yet When I am submitting a
query, the template values are not being substituted correctly and so not
getting my required result.

The snippet of my map file where I am referencing my template file.

                                IMAGEURL "/ms_tmp/"

                                METADATA

                                END

                 END
