Yes, I'm sorry for that, this is the metadata section of my mapfile:
METADATA
     'identify_record'    'identify_parcel.html'
                   'select_record'    'select_parcel.html'
             'select_header' 'select_header_parcels.html'
             'popups' 'parcels_popup.html'

             'itemquery'    'parcels_itemquery.html'
         #    'itemquery-filteritem' 'OWNER_NAME'
             'itemquery-filter'    '/.*[qstring].*/i'
             'qstring_validation_pattern' '.'

             # Feature reports are stored in the conf/feature_report 
directory.
             'feature_report' 'parcel.xml'
         END

I don't see any information pointing to my attribute file, so I just 
fresh copy the section.

This I don't know, I will add it.

Yes it is visible, and it's default state is ON.
