Hmmmm... The MapServer mapfile parser will probably choke on /'s. You have a
couple of options:
Use a wildcard (tweak as necessary):
FILTERITEM "year"
FILTER /^[0-9]{1,2}.[0-9]{1,2}.[0-9]{4}$/
Use a logical expression (assumes version 6.x):
FILTER ("[year]" ~ "^[0-9]{1,2}/[0-9]{1,2}/[0-9]{4}$")

Subject: [mapserver-users] Filter by date
Hello List
How would I FILTER a data set by the month and year ignoring the day. An
example of the field format is 1/11/2010. I found the example below in the
docs but I'm not quite sure how to format the filter to account for the
slashes. Any help is greatly appreciated.
FILTERITEM "year"
FILTER /^20[0-9][0-9]/
Thanks,
Eric
