<DIV><SPAN class=185482421-05022006><FONT face=Arial size=2>I don't know how to
refer to these filters in the URL's query string, there's very little to no
documentation on them, as far as I can find. These are the filters in the
URL with the syntax of
&map_<map_layer_name>_filter="where=clause".</FONT></SPAN></DIV>

<DIV><SPAN class=185482421-05022006><FONT face=Arial size=2>I installed the
latest of FWTools1.0.0a7 with Mapserver 4.8-beta and finally determined a
functionality discrepancy with FWTools1.0.0.a3 with Mapserver 4.7 regarding
multiple inline URL map layer filters. The below URL is the desired
request, but returns an invalid response with no exception. Additionally
nothing is added to the mapserver debug log file either.</FONT></SPAN></DIV>
