If you're doing just straight string equality tests then just do:
qlayer=states&qitem=state&qstring=ND
No need for funky qstrings in that case.

Hey david,
Thanks for your reply, i tried this but it didnt work. I am going to
give you the complete link that we are using. Actually we are trying to query a
states layer from the shape file and display just the north dakota state. So
the link we are using are
http://localhost/scripts/mapserv.exe?MODE=map&MAP=c:/Inetpub/scripts/stateswms.map&CONTEXT=c:/Inetpub/wwwroot/mapserverdata/map_files/contextmap.xml&LAYERS=states&QLAYER=states&QITEM=state&QSTRING=('[state]'='ND')
any suggestions please ...
Thanks for your time and effort ...

Kris,
This may not quite work, but it should be closer. Try something like:
http://pathtomapserv.exe?MODE=itemnquerymap&LAYERS=layer1&QLAYER=layer1&QITEM=colname&QString=('[colname]'='value')
David.

Subject: [UMN_MAPSERVER-USERS] CGI Qlayer,Qstring variables usage
Hello all,
I was trying to query one of the layers from a shape file in the url,
i am used map as the mode and gave the layer name for Qlayer, column name for
Qitem and QString. Part of the URL looks like
http://pathtomapserv.exe?MODE=map&LAYERS=layer1&QLAYER=layer1&QITEM=colname&QString=("colname=value")
the map is displayed but it didnt filter the layer with the given querystring
variables ....
Is there something missing, can anyone suggest with something ...
Thanks for your effort and time ....
