Hello,

I recently came across an interesting openlayers application that uses 
geonames.org for a search functionality.  I would like to be able to use my own 
gis data on the searches.   I came across 
http://mapserver.org/trunk/output/template_output.html, which starts to 
describe how to make a template.  I just have a couple questions.

1)  My understanding is I can use any .map files that have a layer with 
appropriate fields.  I just need to add another output format so that my .map 
file references a JSON template, and I can keep the standard image output 
formats.  Is this correct?


2) How would the html request need to be formatted to search a specific value 
in a specific layer and return JSON?


Any help and / or examples would be greatly appreciated.


Thanks

Mark
