question about turning layers ON

[Michael Hearne]

I'm trying to build a simple mapserv app, and I'm confused about how the 

[layername_select] template is supposed to work.

What parameter in the map file controls whether a layer is selected or
not when the
map initially comes up?  I'd thought it was the "STATUS" keyword, but
the demo application has
almost all of the layers' STATUS set to "ON", yet only lakes and streams
come up initially.

What's the deal?

Thanks in advance,

Mike Hearne
