[mapserver-users] Differerent output format for GetFeatureInfo - template strategy

[Seth G]

Hi,

I'm not sure if you have a custom template for each layer already, or if this something you want to avoid?

I'm guessing ideally you want to be able to change the LAYER - TEMPLATE via the URL?
Although this is not listed in the docs at https://mapserver.org/cgi/runsub.html#parameters-supported looking at the source I think it can be replaced via a URL. 

You can also set a CLASS TEMPLATE via the URL, and maybe have a different CLASS for each INFO_FORMAT and select it with GetStyles. 

Changing the format filename for each layer might be a possibility?
https://mapserver.org/cgi/runsub.html#parameters-supported
OUTPUTFORMAT: FORMATOPTION: FILENAME (must have a MAP VALIDATION pattern)
