[Cartoweb-users] colored result from search action

[Oliver Christen]

Hi

hilighting of feature is only possible with filter (parameters) via query
http://www.cartoweb.org/doc_head/docbook/xhtml/dev.newplugin.html#dev.newplugin.special.filters

so you need to pass the additional parameters:
query_layer=*layer name*
query_select=*feature id*
query_hilight=1
query_return_table=0
and
layer_select=*layer name*

in locate.tpl, you have:
    document.forms['carto_form'].id_recenter_layer.value = 
input_element.alt;
    document.forms['carto_form'].id_recenter_ids.value = item.id;

right there, add:
    var l1 = $('locate1');
    var l2 = $('locate2');
    var l3 = $('locate3');
    var l4 = $('locate4');
    var l5 = $('locate5');

    l1.name = 'query_layer';
    l1.value = input_element.alt;
    l2.name = 'query_select';
    l2.value = item.id;
    l3.name = 'query_hilight';
    l3.value = 1;
    l4.name = 'query_return_table';
    l4.value = 0;
    l5.name = 'layer_select';
    l5.value = input_element.alt;

and at the end, add:

<input type="hidden" id="locate1" />
<input type="hidden" id="locate2" />
<input type="hidden" id="locate3" />
<input type="hidden" id="locate4" />
<input type="hidden" id="locate5" />

clean your cache and try again

maybe there is a nicer way to do that but it works and that was quick to do

regards
Oliver
