[maplab-users] Re : Broken link icon in legend

Doh! Seems to work now. Please ignore previous wailing post. 

Removing the HTML template fixed the display problem. Sorry for wasting the
list's time. Don't worry, I'll be back with more stupid questions soon...

OK, check that - it was only a partial solution. 

Though it enabled legend symbols to appear in the MapEdit preview window,
those links are still broken when I try to view the same map file in
MapBrowser or GMapFactory.

I am using the legend_template.html file that is included with the MapLab
demo. Removing the reference to the template in the Legend object
description does not change things, i.e. legend symbols are OK in MapEdit
preview but not shown in MapBrowser or GMapFactory.

Where are the actual legend symbols (i.e. the jagged lines & coloured boxes
etc) kept in the filesystem, or are they generated by MapServer?

Can anyone suggest a place to look for answers? I have to admit to being a
bit of a clueless newbie with mapserver/maplab but hey... I'll get there. 

Grateful for suggestions.

Yuri

Thank you Gilles. I checked the path for legend template and it was correct.

However this led me to look at the HTML source of the template and I saw
that the relative paths for the icons all began with a period ("./foo/bar/")
- this *nix convention breaks paths in Windows. When I removed the periods
from the relative paths in the HTML document the icons could be found and
the legens displayed correctly. 

Thank you for your suggestion. Hopefully this will help someone else too.

Hi,

You should check in the Object Browser in MapEdit the object Legend. If
there is a path for the option called "Template" check if this is the 
one you enter.
If not, leave the box blank.

Gilles
