I never see [BOX], which should be "true" or "false" (it was so in the
older version and hardcoding "true" should work).
I never see [DRAG] (as it's not documented, as [BOX]).
[PROGRAM] it's not documented, but I fell to remember I saw it in itasca
demo application last year (when I set up it)
[map_web_imagepath] and [map_web_imageurl] are right, see "Changing map
file parameters via a form or a URL" (MAP object in .map file has WEB
child object, which has IMAGEPATH child object; u colud specifiy
everything in map file in tis manner, for example MAP_LEGEND_SIZE= 140
130, passing it to cgi u can change legend size dinamically).
[ZOOMSIZE] is correct, it's the last parameter before "ROSA-Applet
specific".
Personally I think cgi reference it's not too much well documented,
especially for a beginner. I had basic cgi working (less or more) with:
-to cgi ("input"): IMGEXT, IMGXY, IMGBOX
-output (in template tag): MAPEXT wich value become that of IMGEXT when
you give to the url the next time, and so on.
Other paramters are intuitive, but I had to do a lot of try and error to
have something working and I'm still a bit confused. Then one ask
himself why there is not BBOX for example (among others), which is OGC
(I think)...
I repeat myself: cgi reference should be documented well, specifiing
that in reference there are only Mapserver specific (if so) and not OGC
variables, and doing at the reference end, a bit of examples for most
common situations (it should be only one or two pages more...)

Subject: trying to get dbox working...
MIME-Version: 1.0
Content-Type: text/plain
I'm trying to get the dbox demo working on my data, but the page from
http://www.greenwoodmap.com/mapserver/Ottawa-workshop/presentation/demo3_dBo
x-src.html seems to use some template tags that aren't working (and are not
in the template file reference).
Among these are [box], [drag], [program], [map_web_imagepath],
[map_web_imageurl], and [zoomsize].
Is there a working dbox demo I could download? :-) or get some hints as to
how to get this one to work?
I'm using mapserver 4.8.1. I think I have all of the js files needed, but
I'm getting a js error, box is not defined, on
main.box = [box];
Thanks,
John Cole
