Re: [UMN_MAPSERVER-USERS] React on query error

Hi, 

my application offers the possibility to preselect countries that  should 
be displayed on the map. Thus, instead of having all  countries, I get 
only these preselected ones mapped; the others are  grayed out. But if a 
user now uses the query tool and clicks on one  of those not-preselected 
countries, than an mapscript error occurs  (naturally). Is there a way to 
react on such an error warning and  continue at another point, so that 
this "problem" is just ignored and  the application can continue to work? 

                if (!$imgbox)
			$map -> queryByPoint($click_pt, MS_MULTIPLE, -1); // here is then  the 
error
                else
			$map -> queryByRect($click_rt); 

"Warning: [MapServer Error]: msQueryByPoint(): No matching record(s)  
found. in /www/geodataportal/htdocs/mod_map/etc/php/query.php on line  42" 

Thanks for any help! 



Stefan, 

Being that is just a warning message you should be able to set a variable to 
the result of the queryByPoint and then test for MS_SUCCESS or MS_FAILURE 
and react accordingly.
