[mapserver-users] dynamic coloring in mapserver?

[Bob Basques]

You can change the majority of MapFile variable via the URL with Mapserver in CGI mode.  See here for more info:  http://mapserver.org/cgi/runsub.html

Hi, 
  
I am new to map server. I have been playing with it and finding it interesting. I have a shape file with database containing different area (polygon) codes. Let's say I have x.dbf file for a x.shp file and it contains a row with polygon code (I don't worry about layers). 
  
I want to color one or more area as desired by the user. e.g. If a user desires to color area number 12 that corresponds to a region (polygon) in the map, the desired area should be colored with specific color. 
  
Is it possible to do such thing with MapServer? Is it possible to dynamically assign specific color to the polygon area with it? 
  
Thanks a lot!
