[mapserver-users] IMPORTANT question ..please help me (FWD)

[Pericles S. Nacionales]

Edgar,

If you are trying to display labels, use the TYPE ANNOTATION on your LAYER
definition.  THe rest of the syntax is available in the mapserver map file
documentation:
http://mapserver.gis.umn.edu/doc/mapfile-reference.html#layer

You'd also use the LABELITEM to tell MapServer which database attribute to
use for labeling.

Well, I hope that's what you're looking for.  Good luck!
