[ka-Map-users] queryByAttributes and projection

[Bistrais, Bob]

Hi Mike,

This looks interesting.  I'm looking at the user guide, but don't see
where to place it in Ka-Map.  Do I include it in one of the .php files?
Or the main html file?

You can also re-project the coordinates on the client using Proj4js
(http://trac.osgeo.org/proj4js/).
