[mapserver-users] Template Questions (was How to get layer name in an identify template?)

[Lime, Steve D (DNR)]

That's not to say the references are completely current. ;-)

If you do run a across missing information or whatever it's easiest to just file a ticket, or drop a note to the mailing list.

To answer your other questions:


*         [bbox] is not a standard template tag. However, if you set a variable called "bbox" in your query request then that variable is available in template output (HTML escaped first to prevent cross-site scripting).

*         [shpext] and other feature specific tags can only be used within a [feature] block or in the old-style feature templates. Perhaps this can be made clearer in the docs.

Thank you for the references, Steve.

I'm sure I've used "[bbox]" in a template which is not listed in the first link. I think I also had some issues regarding where tags like "[shpext]" can be used within or outwith the "[resultset layer=LayerName]" and "[feature]" tags. I will need to revisit the work that I was doing since I've put it on the back burner just now. I don't want to hi-jack this thread which is now resolved.

Regards,

Donald
