[Mapserver-users] symbology for each symbol

[Palle Due Larsen]

Hi,

I'm about to do something similar. I was thinking about using SLD for
this purpose. SLD's are really quite powerful and are able to do what
you want. However SLD's are WMS-specific, and my application is not WMS,
so I am hoping that there is some way to utilize them from the map file,
or through the url. I suspect mapscript can work with SLD's, but my
application is mapscript-less for now, and I would rather not add
another layer of complexity (God knows there are plenty!). 
If anyone has any idea of how to use SLD's in a non-WMS environment,
please let me know, thank you.

Best regards
