Hi all, yesterday I have worked on a mapfile. I needed to do run-time calls to this mapfile, to chane map file parameters via a form or a URL.
I wanted to change DATA parameters via URL, and I set DATAPATTERN map parameter. In the documentation, for DATAPATTERN you have: "This defines a regular expression to be applied to requests to change DATA parameters via URL requests (i.e. map_layername_data=...)." Then I have started my web calls whit this kind of URL: http://myserver/cgi-bin/mapserv?map=/temp/test.map&mode=map&map_layername_data=012.tif But it does not work. I had to use: http://myserver/cgi-bin/mapserv?map=/temp/test.map&mode=map&map.layer[layername]=DATA+012.tif What do you think to modify the above documentation sentence in something like: "This defines a regular expression to be applied to requests to change DATA parameters via URL requests (i.e. map.layer[layername]=DATA+...)."
