I'm not sure the concepts of Fusion on the file system versus the MGOS repository is really documented anywhere. Here's the idea: the Fusion templates reside in the mapguideopensource/webserverextensions/www/fusion/templates/mapguide folder. You can copy one of these templates somewhere, such as /www/myTemplate and then modify the index.htm and ApplicationDefinition.xml file specific to your project. Then, you can open the Fusion layout directly from the file system via a URL like: http://localhost/mapguide/myTemplate/index.htm. This requires that the map definition be hard-coded into the appDef, so I wrote a patch to fusion that allows you to pass an MGOS map definition as a URL parameter. This works very well for one of my clients applications. Details can be found here: http://trac.osgeo.org/fusion/ticket/65 On the other hand, if you use Autodesk MapGuide Studio 2009 and define new "Flexible" layouts, it uses the Fusion templates as the basis for your layouts, but is internally storing the ApplicationDefinition information in the repository for that layout definition. That is why the standard MGOS challenge / response is issued when calling a Fusion layout like: http://localhost/mapguide/fusion/templates/mapguide/slate/index.html?Applica tionDefinition=Library%3a%2f%2fSamples%2fSheboygan%2fFlexibleLayouts%2fSlate .ApplicationDefinition Here are a couple of the older threads on these topics: http://www.nabble.com/Fusion-security-(or-lack-of)-to17496378.html#a17496812 http://www.nabble.com/Fusion---one-AppDef-many-maps-best-approach--to1721395 1.html#a17213951 Andy Morsell, P.E.

I am trying to help a basic user that does not want to get to deep but if it is easy to implement why not.

The short of it is that if you call a Fusion appDef from the file system, it uses the hardcoded Anonymous user so there will be no prompting, etc. So, no need to API create a &Session. However, if you are calling the appDef from the repository, then MGOS does it own authentication in which case you would need to pass the session as credentials. Andy Morsell, P.E.

Can this be done with the new Fusion based viewer without having to API create a &Session?
