We are new to Mapserver, however we have been successful at developing a MapLab application using the MS4W installation on a stand alone computer.
We are wondering if there are any Geocoding capabilities within MapServer? Any source code or examples would be appreciated. Also, now that we have completed development using the basic tools provided within Maplab, we are wondering if we could enhance this application further outside of MapLab - has anyone had any success on this - any advice on how to proceed would be great. Finally, from a deployment perspective (this may be a dumb question), I am not sure were to begin. Do MapLab applications rely on an underlying Mapserver or are they driven entirely by PHP? The real question here is how do I take an application developed on a stand alone and get it working on my webpage when I'm not sure about all of the software dependancies? Again any advice would be great? Thanks, Jeff
