Manfred, This should work as a qstring:
http://www.elbe-link.de/cgi-bin/map_test1/mapserv?map=test1.map&mode=itemquery&qlayer=zel1&qstring=([ZELNR]=1405) Albert, the concept is that you have to use html and/or javascript on your page to build a http request (url or post) to send to MapServer. I would look at the code behind Lawrence's example.

For a first try it is not necessary. - Thanks for the explantions of TWP and so on and for the example url. - Lawrence did give you a good example. - Perhaps to make it more clear, how to put an url together here two examples: 1) Try http://www.elbe-link.de/cgi-bin/map_test1/mapserv?map=test1.map&mode=map&mapext=2545900+5673000+2547600+5674400 you should get an image with some polygons (parcels) and their id numbers. 2) Try http://www.elbe-link.de/cgi-bin/map_test1/mapserv?map=test1.map&mode=itemquery&mapext=2545900+5673000+2547600+5674400&qlayer=zel1&qitem=ZELNR&qstring="1405"; we did a query for the polygon with the number 1405 in the data field "ZELNR". You should get an image with a highlighted polygon. You see the differences in mode, qlayer, qitem and qstring. At the moment I'm trying to put a qstring in the form "[ZELNR]=1405" together but it does not work. Sorry I have never worked with mode = itemquery and so on.
