[maplab-users] MapSession_RW not working

[Matt Doggett]

I am trying to customize my GmapFactory application to generate a
dynamic mapfile based on user inputs to an HTML form.
After extensive trial/error I finally have a feel for how the Gmap
application works and this led me to declaring a MapSession_RW object
for $oMapSession (rather than the default MapSession_R object
instantiated in globprefs.php).
However, when I do this, the map display will not update at all...zoom,
pan, selecting different layers, etc are all ignored and only the
original (default) map is displayed in the Rosa applet.
If I look in $gszTmpMapPath I find the temporary mapfiles that are
created, and these mapfiles do reflect the changes made by the user.
My question then is what additional change should I make so that the
rosa applet gets the correct (modified) mapfile to display?
This may be related to using map_session_mode=1 but I can't seem to get
that to work either.
Anyone else been down this road???
