I asked the same question and Sam Paske offered the following answer,
which works great. Set SYMBOL for the desired hatch pattern and SIZE for
the desired spacing.<br><br>

I have gotten transparent fills to work on one of my map sites: <br>
<font color="#0000FF"><u><a href="http://www.kapurgis.com/agsmaps/t-cdrbrg/zoning_init.html" eudora="autourl">http://www.kapurgis.com/agsmaps/t-cdrbrg/zoning_init.html<br>
</a></u></font>I used the ellipse symbol as follows to set up a layer
class:<br>
CLASS <br>
NAME "A-1" <br>
EXPRESSION 'A-1' <br>
OUTLINECOLOR 0 0 0 <br>
SYMBOL 1 <br>
SIZE 1 <br>
COLOR 128 225 185 <br>
END<br><br>

If not, is it possible to create some and add them to the symbol
