[Mapserver-users] drawing labels dynamically

[Frank Rittinger]

Hello mapserver users,

Is there a way to draw labels (using PHP/Mapscript) dynamically, i.e. 
depending on a query of an external database?

I want to draw statistical data into maps, generated by mapserver, which 
is not available when the map files and the shape files (actually *.tab 
files) are generated.

I thought of creating shape files on-the-fly, but the Mapscript 
documentation says that attributes of shapes are read-only and cannot be 
added.

Thanks, Frank
