How to query feature info with tilecache layer?

[Alphatran]

As you see, tilecache is the fast way to load map from MapServer. I'm changing to use tilecache layer instead of WMS layer. But I'm worry about how can I query feature info with tilecache layer? Currently, I get feature info from WMS layer by OpenLayers. Thanks for your attention!

There is no reason to change anything: continue to query the mapserver for
non-tile requests.

Thanks Christopher,

If I modify data layers (in ArcSDE for Oracle) will the TileCache layers be updated immediately?

No, it is up on Your strategy what to do if the layers are updated. For example, You can delete cached files and run tilecache_seed to create new ones.

Thanks Ivan Mincik-2,

For me, making a webgis (with more than 17 vector layers on it) run faster is so hard.
