ciao Luca, the query in p.mapper does not consider any headers or footers. If it's just for joining DB data to a layer and if the relation is 1-to-1 you can also use the join function in p.mapper for it. It requires the PEAR DB package to be installed.
See the documentation for the Join definition. There is also a Wiki entry I think. Should be something like "RESULT_JOIN" "mysql://username:password at hostname/database||lakespy2 at [EMAIL PROTECTED] at field1,field2,field3||SHAPE_join_field||0" under METADATA and the 'field1,field2,field3' has to be added to the METADATA "RESULT_FIELDS". Maybe the join via the 'normal' functionality is also working when you add the fields just into "RESULT_FIELDS", I've never tried that. armin -------- Original-Nachricht -------- Datum: Tue, 18 Jul 2006 15:45:22 +0200 Von: luca marletta <lucamarle at gmail.com> An: pmapper-users at faunalia.it Betreff: [Pmapper-users] JOIN datasource > Ciao Armin, > I'm trying to connect some table in MySQL to shape using JOIN as this > example > > LAYER > NAME lakespy2 > TYPE POLYGON > STATUS ON > DATA lakespy2 > CLASS > NAME 'Lakes & Rivers' > TEMPLATE "lakespy2.html" > COLOR 49 117 185 > END > > HEADER "lakespy2_header.html" > FOOTER "lakespy2_footer.html" > > JOIN > CONNECTIONTYPE mysql > CONNECTION "hostname:username:password:database" > TABLE "lakespy2" > TO "id" > NAME "lakejoin" > FROM "ID" > END > END # lakes > > How can I manage the HEADER and FOOTER option in pmapper? > do you think is it possible to do it? > > Actually I need it because I have some information on MySQL to join > and I cannot migrate them because part of another db that is update > everyday. > > The example above, if works correctly is perfect for me but I've no > idea how can I manage it in pmapper. > > could you give me a suggestion? > > luca > > -- > luca marletta > > _______________________________________________ > Pmapper-users mailing list > Pmapper-users at faunalia.it > http://faunalia.it/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/pmapper-users -- Echte DSL-Flatrate dauerhaft f?r 0,- Euro*!
