[mapserver-users] Include directive and mapscript

Paul,

  I could not reproduce this behavior locally. The fact that a layer 
comes from an include file or is in a map file should not make any 
difference since they all end up as part of the map object internally 
(no distinction where the layer comes from).  Not sure what to suggest 
if your include was done successfully. Maybe doing a map->save and 
making sure that all expected layers are there. If the map file seems 
fine and you still have a problem with that function, I am willing to 
test it if you provide me with the map file.

Best Regards,
