[mapserver-users] How do a GetFeaureInfo on vector layer but showing raster layer ?

[Anna Muñoz]

Thank you very much to Steve Line and Carlos Ruiz for your feddback and
suggestions!

Finally I get the solution using mod_rewrite, and this is the solution that
work in my case:

RewriteEngine on
##LogLevel alert rewrite:trace5
RewriteCond %{QUERY_STRING}
^[A-z0-9,.%/-?&=]+GetFeatureInfo[A-z0-9,.%/-?&=]+
RewriteCond %{QUERY_STRING}  ^(.*)raster_to_display(.*)
RewriteRule ^.*mapserv.exe.*$
http://localhost/cgi-bin/mapserv.exe?%1vector_to_query%2    [PL]

Best regards,
Anna
