[Mapserver-users] Annotation fails to appear

[Dan Liu]

Hi all,
I have the annotation layer in PHP/mapscript but it does not show on the map.
Anybody knows what is wrong?
... 
  $Layer = ms_newLayerObj($map);
  $Layer -> set("name","city_name");
  $Layer -> set("status", MS_ON);
  $Layer -> set("type", MS_LAYER_ANNOTATION);
  $Layer -> set("data","mcd90py2");
  $Layer -> set("classitem", "CITY_NAME");
  $Layer -> set("labelitem", "CITY_NAME");
  $Layer -> {annotate} = 1;
  $LabelClass = ms_newClassObj($Layer);
  $LabelClass -> {color} = $Color1;
  $LabelClass -> {label} -> {size} = MS_GIANT;
  $LabelClass -> {label} -> {type} = MS_TRUETYPE;
  $LabelClass -> {label} -> {position} = MS_CC;
  $LabelClass -> {label} -> {color} = $map->addColor(0,0,0);
  $LabelClass -> {label} -> {outlinecolor} = $map->addColor(199,216,252);
