Ok folks,
I used your suggestions and addede some configurations to the map files:
MAP
......
SHAPEFILE /gis/ms5/etc/shapefile
.....
END
LAYER
NAME "level_04"
TYPE POLYGON
DATA SITIREN_CARTO_LEVEL04
STATUS ON
CLASS
NAME "Level 04"
OUTLINECOLOR 0 0 0
END
END
In the HTML page, in the function for the onReady event:
map.addLayer( new OpenLayers.Layer.WMS("level_04", mapserver_url, {
layers: "level_04",
format: "image/png",
singleTile: true,
isBaseLayer: true
},{
visibility: true
}
)
);
I have also 2 OpenLayers.Layer.TMS defined and they are shown in the menù layer
with exclusive radio buttons and they are set as base layer. All the other
layers are defined as OpenLayers.Layer.WMS and associated one to onet with a
menù leaf. The problem I'm encountering is: the new layer that point to a
shapefile isn't shown anywhere so I can't use it. I think the code is correct
because I have no errors on page loading.
What I'm doing wrong?
TIA
Fabio
