<body class='hmmessage'>hi my name is shiva ramnarine, im new to chameleon and ms4w. i am interested in mapping and plan on doing a degree in GIS. i am currently doing a computer degree and decided that doing a project along these lines would be a good idea. (not a good programmer)<br><br>i decided to try out chameleon and followed the instructions word for word but for some reason i cannot get my template.phtml to show. the page loads with no errors but it has no content or visible content i should say. i looked at the help files, read users comments on your site but have not been able to find anything useful. i have tried to remake the template file and the initializer file several times and all have failed. <br><br>by chance do you know what the error could be? i am running windows home with sp2, i have apache and php installed and on top of that i have the ms4w and chameleon installed (along with several other chameleon type applications fist, klab, etc.)<br><br>to be honest i tried using the fist application first but had the same problem of my maps not showing. in the case of chameleon, nothing is showing.<br><br>one other question is, could chameleon connect to a mysql database?<br><br>any assistance that you can give me will be greatly appreciated. <br><br>thanks<br><br>Shiva<br><br>p.s my project has to do with creating an application that shows a map with a soil layer and when you select an area and hit search a list of possible tree species that can be planted there will show up. this is possible with chameleon right?<br><br><br><br /><hr />Climb to the top of the charts!
