[mapserver-users] mapserver queries and java / javascript

[Arthur Delorme]

I think I definitely need help with this :)

I did some cleaning to reduce the interface to a very basic example. The 
"box" button was used to activate selection with jbox (either for 
zooming or nquerying) -- without jbox anymore it generates a JS error of 
course.

There is only 1 layer here, with 2 objects. They are represented as 
points in the default view and after zooming in once. Zoom in once more 
and they will turn to 2 overlapping polygons (nquery possible on the 
overlapping part then).

I uploaded the files here: https://dl.ipgp.fr/60lwa2p

Tested with the last mapserver version available from the ubuntugis 
stable repository:
MapServer version 7.0.4 OUTPUT=PNG OUTPUT=JPEG OUTPUT=KML SUPPORTS=PROJ 
SUPPORTS=AGG SUPPORTS=FREETYPE SUPPORTS=CAIRO SUPPORTS=SVG_SYMBOLS 
SUPPORTS=RSVG SUPPORTS=ICONV SUPPORTS=FRIBIDI SUPPORTS=WMS_SERVER 
SUPPORTS=WMS_CLIENT SUPPORTS=WFS_SERVER SUPPORTS=WFS_CLIENT 
SUPPORTS=WCS_SERVER SUPPORTS=SOS_SERVER SUPPORTS=FASTCGI 
SUPPORTS=THREADS SUPPORTS=GEOS INPUT=JPEG INPUT=POSTGIS INPUT=OGR 
INPUT=GDAL INPUT=SHAPEFILE

And the URL I use to access it (replace [host] with your server's):
http://[host]/cgi-bin/mapserv?map=/var/www/html/test/test.map&mode=browse&program=/cgi-bin/mapserv&map_web=TEMPLATE+test.html

If you have any advice about a simple way to do the same as jbox did, 
i.e. nquerying by drawing a box, it would be great! Just which direction 
to take and I hope I can manage to do it then.

Thanks!
Arthur
