Hi Rich, Thanks... the same problem persists when i use 'mode=browse' and use the resulting image...
What might be related is the 'img' cgi control... can someone explain this to me? i read the documentation, but i don't get it... it doesn't show what value (if any)... here is the documentation entry: IMG > > The name associated with the inline map image used to record user clicks. > What actually is passed are two variables, img.x and img.y. > > For the CGI Applications this is an essential variable, see the examples > for sample usage. > there is no indication what type of value should be associated with it (like the other values in the reference indicate... like "ID [id-string]"), but it says it is essential and see the examples (which examples, i don't know...). can someone explain further how this control is used in a get statement issued to the mapserv binary? thanks, matt On Dec 6, 2007 5:20 PM, rich.fromm <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: > > > > url: > > ---- > > > http://localhost/cgi-bin/mapserv.exe?zoom=2&img.x=330&img.y=247.5&mapext=189775.375+4810000+761662.375+5472414.5&map=C:/ms4w/Apache/htdocs/tst/race.map&layer=county&mode=map > > result: > > -------- > > map image of full extent from mapfile is returned... not the zoomed > image. > > > > i'm not positive, but afaict, zoom is not relevant for map mode. and if > you're just trying to do a simple request and response, the way to do this > is to calculate the extent yourself. zoom in, smaller extent. zoom out, > larger extent. > > i might be wrong on this, but this is how i'm doing things. > > - rich > > -- > View this message in context: > http://www.nabble.com/CGI-Mapserver%3A-raw-URL-zooming-manipulation-tf4958616.html#a14203503 > Sent from the Mapserver - User mailing list archive at Nabble.com. > -- It is from the wellspring of our despair and the places that we are broken that we come to repair the world. -- Murray Waas
