ICON Placing co-ordinates.....<BR><BR></FONT></DIV>
<DIV>I am having some trouble too. I want to pass in the x y as variables.
Here is the section in my map file:</DIV>

is where you specify position on the map<BR> POINTS %gpsx%

<DIV>#21<BR>SYMBOL<BR> NAME "marker"<BR> TYPE PIXMAP<BR>

<DIV><BR>Unfortunately I get an error: </DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>loadFeaturePoints(): Unknown identifier. Parsing error near

<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>How can I pass in the x y?</DIV>
