I know there is always a way to submit a form via POST, but it can be an unwieldy proces. I am interested to know if the MapGuide server can supply a list of selected layers to a server-side program.

RE: [mapguide-users] Get selected layers from server side
I think this isn't possible when using the Ajax viewer, but is possible when using the DWF viewer. Someone may correct me on that... Use the Script frame of the Ajax viewer to fire a Form Submit Post to pass your selection set instead. Cheers, Kori Maleski -Original Message- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Jim O'Leary Sent: January-04-08 6:13 PM To: mapguide-users@lists.osgeo.org Subject: [mapguide-users] Get selected layers from server side Is it possible to get a list of the map's selected layers from the server side? I know I can get this by making an MgSelection and passing the selection XML from the client to the server program, like: $selection = new MgSelection($map,$_REQUEST['selectionXML']); However, I don't want to pass a big selection XML string to the server program, as I am passing by GET and the selection XML could be greater than the browser handles. If I make the selection object without including the selection XML, like $selection = new MgSelection($map); $selectedLayers = $selection->GetLayers(); $numberLayers = $selectedLayers->GetCount(); PHP tells me that $selectedLayers is not an object.
