[Cartoweb-users] Hilighting area's

[Alexandre Fellay]

The most important point about hilighting in the doc is paragraph 9.2.1 : if you 
set  drawQueryUsingHilight to true in query.ini (server-side), you'll use the 
extended hilighting mechanism of cartoweb, where you have the different 
configuration options listed in your mail. Otherwise, the normal Mapserver 
hilighting mechanism is used; then the configuration options are very limited, 
since they are those of the QUERYMAP object in the mapfile (same hilight color 
for all layers, no transparency...).
