[mapserver-users] Attribute binding on STYLE's WIDTH

I'm trying to use attribute binding on WIDTH (doc'ed at the bottom of
http://mapserver.org/mapfile/style.html) in v5.2.1:

CLASS
    STYLE  # Polygon fill
	SYMBOL [sSymbol] # hatch
	COLOR  [sColor]
	ANGLE  [sAngle]
	SIZE   [sWidth]  # e.g Hatching gap
	WIDTH  [sSize]  # Hatching line thickness  ERRROR!
    END
END


But I get a parsing error:

<HEAD><TITLE>MapServer Message</TITLE></HEAD>
<!-- MapServer version 5.2.1 OUTPUT=GIF OUTPUT=PNG OUTPUT=JPEG OUTPUT=WBMP
OUTPUT=PDF OUTPUT=SVG SUPPORTS=PROJ SUPPORTS=AGG SUPPORTS=FREETYPE
SUPPORTS=WMS_SERVER SUPPORTS=THREADS SUPPORTS=GEOS INPUT=JPEG
INPUT=POSTGIS INPUT=OGR INPUT=GDAL INPUT=SHAPEFILE -->
<BODY BGCOLOR="#FFFFFF">
getInteger(): Symbol definition error. Parsing error near (sSize):(line 218)
</BODY>

Has anyone used this feature? Is it supposed to work?

Thanks!
