Subject: [mapserver-users] Symbol for Roads with Width


I am trying to create a particular cartographic effect. The idea is one
of a road line with both width and boundaries. Like a big filled snake,
with darker borders.

I can make it wide, but I cannot make the middle a different color from
the edges... I am using 3.5 CVS
Any guidance?
