Mark,

You will want to add a LABEL block to your mapfile.  http://mapserver.org/mapfile/label.html

I would also comment out the maxscale until you get the labels working.

Hi all,

Ok so now I have a new problem with the labeling.

I would like to get my labels to start showing up at a scale of 1:1000000 but nothing is working...

here is a snippet of my mapfile...

  LAYER
    NAME 'mjcities'
    TYPE POINT
    DUMP false
  EXTENT -143.210462 39.001401 -50.461045 85.911094
    DATA '../data/mjcities.shp'
    METADATA
      'ows_title' 'mjcities'
    END
    STATUS default
 MAXSCALE 1000000
 TRANSPARENCY 100
 CLASSITEM 'NAME'
  LABELITEM 'NAME'
 PROJECTION
    'proj=longlat'
    'datum=WGS84'
    'no_defs'
    END
    CLASS
    NAME 'mjcities'
       STYLE
         SYMBOL "circle"
         SIZE 15.0
         OUTLINECOLOR 0 0 0
         COLOR 182 109 194
       END

Thanks,
Mark
