If you use a WMS-compliant MAP file, you can use the GetCapabilities
request to get a nice XML document with lots of layer info.

Subject: [Mapserver-users] querying a .map file

I am looking for a way to query a .map file to get a list of all the
layer names.   Is there anyway to have this information returned from a
cgi call?  Thanks for any feedback.
