[Cartoweb-dev] layers.tpl and metadata

[Oliver Christen]

Hi Yves
It is possible to set the metadate in layers.ini instead of into the 
mapfile.
exemple:
layers.sn25.className = Layer
layers.sn25.msLayer = sn25
layers.sn25.metadata.fileIdentifier = SN25 <- this is the metadata

I dont know if string containing "=" will pass, as I have never tried 
myself.
Let me know if it works or not.

Btw, if the first part of your url is always the same, you can put the 
http://bla.com/?bla= in the layers.tpl and only pass the argument via 
metadata, hence avoiding passing a =.

regards
Oliver
