Steve,
Fuuny, I already figured out that I (or mapserver) needs a spatial element as
a return. I thought about the Extent idea as well, and have been working on
using a dummy point in a dummy table to get around it, but maybe the extent
piece is the way to go, and it would be a good addition
I think you’d have to associate geometries with the text regardless since
MapServer will always apply a spatial filter (based on extent) in addition to
whatever non-spatial filter you populate. I could see tying the extent of your
project – either a rect or some fancy geometry to each bit of
I’m trying to use a tabular (no spatial field) SQL metadata call to populate a
disclaimer notice in a image output.
Anyone tried this and have an example handy?
Thanks
