[Cartoweb-users] tileindex and layer.ini

[Pierre GIRAUD]

The TILEITEM parameter should give the name of the field in the 
shapefile that points to the name of each tile.

If you created your tileindex shapefile with the gdaltindex command, you 
don't need to specify any TILEITEM as it is defaultly set to LOCATION 
(like in the built shapefile).
