[ka-Map-users] Searching on Oracle Spatial and hilite query features

[Gupteshwar Joshi]

Hello Bryn,
I was also facing the same problem , but my side data is PostGIS .
So , when I tried to find the the problem ,I got that layer connectiontype
does
matter in this thing.
So, when I tried with the extra code as
if ($oLayer->connectiontype==6) (i.e. for postgis )
created some array of postgis layer and included that  in the
search code, now  I could  search in both shape file  and  postgis  data.
 If you could find that connection type for your data then it might work for

your side also.

Regards
