[ka-Map-users] Changing the mapfile

Hi,

I need to change the data of a layer based on a parameter. So, I'm
generating the mapfile dinamically and setting it by
mySetMap('mapfile_tmp'). The problem is if i change the data and set the
mapfile with the same name, the layer didn't change.

Example:

MapfileA

map
    layer
        connectiontype POSTGIS
        data "the_geom from table"
        ...
    end
end

Then i change the mapfile to:

map
    layer
        connectiontype POSTGIS
        data "the_geom from table where column = 'foo' "
        ...
    end
end

And I set the mapfile mySetMap('MapfileA').

What I'm doing wrong?

What i need to do is to change the data of a layer when an user make a
search.
