John: you could add the extra keyword-value pairs to the CONNECTION object, i.e.:
CONNECTION "http://localhost:8080/geoserver/wms?filter=fieldname=fieldvalue"; Hope this helps ..Tom -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] on behalf of John Mitchell Sent: Mon 18-Aug-08 19:10 To: [email protected] Subject: [mapserver-users] adhoc requests to the end of the WMS requestwithin mapserver map file Below I have listed a sample layer section which does a WMS call to a local geoserver and this work fine, but what I would like to now do is be able to add to this WMS request a filter parameter (e.g. &filter=fieldname=fieldvalue) which geoserver can accept. How can I add adhoc requests like the filter example listed above to the end of the WMS request when mapserver is making a WMS request? Thanks, John LAYER # name of layer NAME "vector:sangis_unexploded_ordnance_child" GROUP "SanGIS_parent" # what type of data is this?
