You need to patch mapserv.c
At line 320 add this code:
for(k=0; k<map->layers[j].numclasses; k++) {
if(map->layers[j].class[k].text.string &&
(strstr(map->layers[j].class[k].text.string, tmpstr) != NULL))
map->layers[j].class[k].text.string =
gsub(map->layers[j].class[k].text.string, tmpstr,
msObj->request->ParamValues[i]);
}

G'day all,
I am using a cgi application, but it can take a date and interval
parameter to return a map showing a certain range of data. This can be
sent as a get from another application, and it just returns a map for
download - eventually planning to be able to make a sequence or series
of maps to show movement.
Using Jeff McKenna's advice :
http://mapserver.gis.umn.edu/docs/faq/copyright-layer
I would like to print the range of the variables on the map, for
fairly obvious reasons. I don't seem to be able to use cgi variables
to do this :
vis
TEXT '%interval% prior to %enddate%'
although I am using these two variable successfully in a postgis
query a few rows above to actually display the data.
Does anyone have any suggestions on how to do this - using the cgi!
cheers
Ben
