[Chameleon] Using and display JOIN's with Chameleon

Hi All,

I am trying to combine shapefile attributes with a CSV file, but
cannot see what is the best way to do it. I have my layer definition
as follows:

LAYER
  NAME "LayerName"
  TYPE POINT
  DATA layerdata
  STATUS ON
  TEMPLATE "ttt_query.html"

  JOIN
    CONNECTIONTYPE CSV
    TABLE "datafile.csv"
    TO "ID"
    NAME "csvlayerjoin"
    FROM "InfoID"
    TEMPLATE "ttt_join.html"
  END
END

My question is - does Chameleon support JOIN's and what is the best
method to display the results? They do not seem to come up in the
Query results, so I presume it is with MapTips or LayerAttributes?
Has anyone done this before?

Regards
Jonathon
