Thank you:)

Is there any way I can set this within a php code?
I know how to make layers on:

$layer =3D $map->getLayerByName(place_name);
$layer->set("status", MS_ON);

I wonder if some other code also sets label specifications? I have read =
the
php reference but I believe what that reference (and therefore newbeis =
like
me) lacks is examples. I wish there were any examples for complex codes =
in
the reference since one might not have done any php work when he started
working with mapscript....

Have a nice day
