Yes there is. Look into the query and template functions in MapServer. In the shapefile you should try to store a minimal representation of the hyperlink. Like a ID or a relative URL. That way if the look up system, or server, changes you do not need to do a complete update of your shapefile.
So, for example, say you had a column called "OBJECTID" that contained a unique identifier for the feature that is used in other systems. In a template file you can do the following: <a href="http://my.other.server/the/path/to/script.cgi?object_id=[OBJECTID]" target="_blank">View in The Other System</a> ----- Original Message ---- > From: Geosig <geosig...@yahoo.ca> > To: mapserver-users@lists.osgeo.org > Sent: Friday, January 9, 2009 3:31:40 PM > Subject: [mapserver-users] how MapServer manage the hyperlinks in the > shapefile data table > > > Hi everybody > > I am new in using MapServer so excuse me if my question it seems to you > somehow... strange. > > There is any possibility to ad hyperlinks to the shapefile data table used > by MapServer, so that when we see a querry table to be capable to follow > these links? > > Thank you > -- > View this message in context: > http://n2.nabble.com/how-MapServer-manage-the-hyperlinks-in-the-shapefile-data-table-tp2135378p2135378.html > Sent from the Mapserver - User mailing list archive at Nabble.com. > > _______________________________________________ > mapserver-users mailing list > mapserver-users@lists.osgeo.org > http://lists.osgeo.org/mailman/listinfo/mapserver-users _______________________________________________ mapserver-users mailing list mapserver-users@lists.osgeo.org http://lists.osgeo.org/mailman/listinfo/mapserver-users
