Template problems

That would be:

myVariable0 = "[ROADS]";

Put that in the template and mapserver will set the value. If you want 
an array, I think it is possible with something like the following 
kwywords in the mapfile and place the follow code in each template:

HEADER   "/path/to/roads_header.html"

   <html>
   <head>

   ...

   <script ....>
   <!--
       var ai = 0;
       var a = new Array();

TEMPLATE "/path/to/roads_query.html"

       s[ai] = "[ROADS]"; ai++;

FOOTER   "/path/to/roads_footer.html"

   -->
   </script>
   </head>
   <body>

    ...
