classifying with an external datasource

[Richard Jansen]

Hi List,

I want to classify and color a poly shape. The values for classifying are
stored in a SQL Server database. When I read the List I understand that
this is not possible. I'm trying to join a template dbf file with the
needed values. I also tried to add new field to the dbf, that's not simple.
I'm using PHP/Mapscript. Is there a way to do this?

Thanks for your comments,
Richard Jansen
