<P>Yes, I tried using single and double quotes with no luck. It seems odd that i can show one symbol but not another. I can't seem to show the triangle one below, nor can I use the basic circle symbol found on the mapserver reference page. </P>
<P>Any ideas??</P>

<DIV></DIV>>SYMBOL 'triangle'
<DIV></DIV>>
