Dear Mapserver Users !

I need to change the colors dynamically for certain polygins 
and/or for layers (depends on how the image is composed). The 
mapfile provides color definition, but I would like to change 
it based on some time-dependent process.

I plan to invoke the function (integrated into mapserver after 
processing the map file) or using mapscript.  

If anyone can suggest the APIs to use for 

-> layers color setting
-> individual polygon color setting (based on the attributes in 
*.dbf file)

I will very much appreciate it.

Thanks in advance,
