I've been able to generate a map using the OGR CONNECTIONTYPE to pull data from a MySQL table.
Each record contains the geometry and extents and I've figured out how to set the extents before drawing the map. However, if I could dynamically modify the DATA element of a layer's CONNECTION, the end result would be much better. When I dump the $map array, I don't see an element that corresponds to the CONNECTIONTYPE or the DATA string for the OGR connection. I'd be grateful if someone could post the equivalent to what I use to change the EXTENT for the current map. I use something like this: <?php $row=mysql_fetch_assoc($result); $map->setExtent($row['x1'],$row['y1'],$row['x2'],$row['y2']); $image->$map->draw(); // then show the result ?> I'm terribly illiterate when it comes to O-O stuff, so if you care to help, the more explanation the better for me!!!
