My DATA statement is like so DATA "the_geom FROM (SELECT gid, pc, the_geom FROM table) t USING UNIQUE gid USING srid=4326" FILTER "pc = 'na'" The above works fine. However, I would like to send the value of "pc" from OpenLayers (that is another problem that I am experiencing; I have asked on OL list on how to send query params to WMS layers, but if any of you know the solution, I would welcome that). In any case, I thought (naively), that I could change my FILTER statement like so FILTER "pc = '[pc]'" I tried sending a WMS query directly to test the above like so [http://server/cgi-bin/app?.. blah ..&pc=na] but no joy. Forcing a query error showed me that MapServer was executing the following select .. from (..) t where the_geom && GeomFromText(..) and (pc = '[pc]') How can I dynamically supply MapServer a filter value? -- Puneet Kishor _______________________________________________ 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
