Great to see a users list. PMapper is a wonderful collection/organization of Mapserver Application files. Our company has used it to extend service to our clients in enabling them to host limited data on our server via PMapper and Mapserver. Our company's applications can be visited at the following link:
http://www.wthengineering.com/GIS/web_gis_demos.htm One item we would like to be able to perform within PMapper would be to enhance the search capabilities to allow searching of multiple fields...especially applicable to address location for example. It would be nice to be able to enter a Street Number, then a Street or Road Name, and possibly a City or Zipcode...then have the application map that location. Currently we limit our addressing searches to the House Number...get multiple choices that the user has to then decide which gets mapped or returned. This works OK on a county basis...but is somewhat limiting when you desire to use regional are large databases...(for example...in the US-its seems that every town/city has a Main Street). Our company does addressing for some clients...but we always do pinpoint addressing...aligned with Ortho Photography. We try not to utilize range addressing datasets when it is possible. Those tend to create problems and errors when used with Public Safety applications. Again...our hat is off to Armin for the tremendous work he has done. I can't say enough about it.

You just have to define more fields to be included in the search. Eg in search.phtml case "location": echo("<td>". _("Location") ." </td> \n"); echo("<td><INPUT TYPE=text NAME=\"STR_NO\" SIZE=15></td> \n"); echo("<td><INPUT TYPE=text NAME=\"#STR_NAME\" SIZE=15></td> \n"); echo("<td><INPUT TYPE=text NAME=\"ZIP_CODE\" SIZE=15></td> \n"); echo("<td><INPUT TYPE=hidden NAME=\"qlayer\" VALUE=\"locations\"></td> \n"); break; I once included a modification in the version 1.0.6 that slipped through somehow in the later versions. It allowed empty text inputs. In the current version 1.0.8 you will not find anything if one text input remains empty. So you just have to modify in query.php at line 644 (Postgis layers) and line 663 the code from $qStr .= $varValStr . " AND "; to if (strlen(trim($val)) > 0) { $qStr .= $varValStr . " AND "; } I will add that modification to the next minor release. If you set the autoZoom = search in the config.ini then you should also cause the map to zoom to the found features.
