hello, taking effective crash course in Mapserver and MySQL. Have seen CONNECTIONTYPE mygis, OGR/MySQL, JOIN and MySQL, and related docs. I haven't yet seen any strong indication that anything in Mapserver is compatible with the spatial extensions to MySQL (v4.1 and above, I think).
Can anyone confirm or refute the following: " I should NOT attempt to model any spatial data in MySQL using its spatial constructs if I want to display them in Mapserver." Thanks for any assist -- might save several hours of investigation. Robert H.
