Hi Gordon,
Your technical tutorial is great and easy to understand. I set-up a MapGuide web-site in a couple of days, following your guidance.
Thank you for sharing your knowledge with us.
I am trying to link an Object Data with a local machine file. I am Having a problem with the <a href code. So I can link pdfs and other file to a object data. I am using Maestro r5060.. Can you please help.
You have two choices with Object Data:
1. Use FME to translate to something else (i.e. SDF)
2. Use AIMS 2013 (it now supports DWG directly with Object Data)

Hi Gordon,
Your tutorial was a great help for me as i was very much confused about how to use maestro and its role in mapguide open source.
Can you also please tell me or at least give me a hint about its programming specially server side programming, plotting data from database, searching, querying and symbolization of maps.
i have searched a lot but cant find anything regarding these topics. Thank you very much in advance.
Regards
