[Cartoweb-users] Cartoweb and Ajax

[Simon ORTET]

Hi

Thank for your answer. The functionnalities i need in ajax are 
fullExtent and mapSize.
Well by now i'm trying to implement it on the full extent function. 
Maybe you could tell me wether i took a wrong path.
On the doSubmit function, instead of the myform.submit(); i do a 
x_submitForm(); wich looks like this:

/function x_submitForm(){
  xShow(xGetElementById('loadbarDiv'));
  var param = AjaxHandler.buildPostRequest();
  var laRequete = new Ajax.Request('/cw/htdocs/x_aeag.php', {method: 
'post',parameters: param,onComplete: afficherReponse} );
}

/The file x_aeag.php looks like this:
/<?php
$_ENV['CW3_PROJECT'] = 'aeag';
require_once('client.php');

header('Content-Type: text/xml');
?>/

And then i modified the cartoclient.tpl so it produces an xml stream:
/<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>/
/<reponse>
    <bbox>{$bboxMinX},{$bboxMinY},{$bboxMaxX},{$bboxMaxY}</bbox>
    <factor>{$factor}</factor>
    <mapunits>{$mapUnits}</mapunits>   
    <scalebarUnits>{$scalebarUnits}</scalebarUnits>
    <currentScale>1:{$currentScale}</currentScale>
    <mainmap_path>{$mainmap_path}</mainmap_path>
    <mainmap_width>{$mainmap_width}</mainmap_width>
    <mainmap_height>{$mainmap_height}</mainmap_height>
    <scalebar_path>{$scalebar_path}</scalebar_path>
    <keymap_path>{$keymap_path}</keymap_path>
</reponse>/

Now my problem is that cartoweb doesn't produce the full extent map 
image. A new image is yet generated but with still the same extent. I 
can't find why...

Simon Ortet
