A couple of newbie questions

Hi,
Last weekend I finally got my own Mapserver application to work, at
least to allow zooming and panning. I'm confused on quering and other
things, still.
First:
One of my layers (areas where archaeological surveys have been done) has
internal polygons which are actually unsurveyed. Within the dbf file the
value of SURVEY_ID for these is 0, all "real" polygons have a numeric code
relating to a document number describing the survey.
Could someone show me a mapfile snippet that will only display polygons
with SURVEY_ID > 0?
One of the other layers is the locations of reported archaeological sites,
digitized as polygons. My users will want to be able to click on a site
and get the information associated. The information is in a separate dbf
file that can be linked to the coverage by a index number.
What is the combination of mapfile information and html code that will
make it possible for a user to click on a polygon, and get a listing of
the associated record?
I hope these are simple...
Erich
