hi,

I'm working in a application that uses mapserver to serve images with wms
and single points with wfs, in the client side there is a openlayers script.
This already works.

Another functionality is when user selects a feature or click in a image the
aplication must show some information, like text in table next to the map,
depending on the options that user sets.

My doubt is about the way to comunicate client and server.
The simpler way is to detect with openlayer what has been selected, and send
a request to php server script with necessary parameters like id,etc.. and
send back a XML file
I prefer to use WFS, with getFeatureInfo, because seems more maintainable
and standard, but I don't know how to do this with mapserver in a good way
because getFeatureInfo doesn't allow to select by id.

What is the best option?



Thank you for any answers.
