[mapserver-users] symbolizing polygon outlines

[Brent Fraser]

David,

   One technique is to render the polygon data twice; once as TYPE 
POLYGON to render the fill, and again as TYPE LINE to render the polygon 
outline as a dashed line.  You can use the same polygon data file for 
each.  If you name the layers the same, they'll turn on/off together.

Best Regards,
Brent Fraser
