(Sorry Yahoo added html on previous post)

Well, I got something :)
I was able to view 1 red dot ;)
Should be lots more. I think I got some kind of
projection error or something wrong with lat and lon.
Scale is questionable too? ie meters kilometers, miles
or dd (What is dd)
 
this is what I have on other layer? (Cities in Canada)
and this is what I am trying to import, but lats and
lons are different? im nubie ;0
 
Working shape data from dbf files :
 
LAT LONG
523300 561800
552800 601300
550500 591100
533300 640100
 
and NOT working shape (Well one dot):
 
WGS_LAT WGS_DLAT WGS_LONG WGS_DLONG
N12300500 12.501389 W070005480 -70.015222
N17081230 17.136750 W061473360 -61.792667
N24464990 24.780528 E052333580 52.559944
 

What should be set differently to show all of these?
 
Thx

Hi
 
I got all examples finally working, also installed
maplab, and its working great.(php script latest)
I read multiple posts and got sidetracked so many
times.
I have 3 files  test.dbf test.shp and test.shx (I read
that mapserver needs all of them to work) I got them
working fine with ArcExplorer, but when I try to add
them to Mapserver demo files or maplab demofiles, I
just get blank screen.
 
I know I need to give all kinds of properties, but I'm
so confused ;0
 
What would be absolutely minimum stuff to get this
working, so I can learn.
Do I need some other programs to use these Arc files
with Mapserver.

Thanks
