Subject: Re: [Mapserver-users] ArcView created layer not working in =
mapscript
Hi:
Just try to keep names in double quotes
I mean LABELITEM 'NAME' has to be LABELITEM "NAME"
and CLASS
NAME 'NAME' has to be NAME "NAME"
Also check that in the DBF the column names are tiped in the same way =
you do in the map file.
I give you a part of the code who works ok for me.
Its a bit longer , I have classified the points by the population so 1 =
means capitols
2 Deparment Headers, 3 Towns, and so on
I you pay attention LABELITEM is Doblequoted and write exactly like the =
way ArcView shows it in the Table.--->Properties
Good Luck
JC.

Subject: [Mapserver-users] ArcView created layer not working in =
mapscript
Hello,
I am trying to make my own tiny, amatuer layer in ArcView 3.x and =
display it in mapscript but I am failing, I will be very glad if anyone =
can help...
This alyer of mine is just a single point at a certain coordinate, =
with a single label. I had learned how to make point layers from this =
list before but when it comes to adding label, I am stuck.
What I do in ArcView 3.x is:
1. Export data into a textfile
2. Choose Table->Add and select your Textfile
3. Choose View->Add Event Theme and select txt-table, the X- and=20
the Y-field.
4. Choose Theme->Convert to shapefile
My text file is:
"X","Y","NAME"
29.0708,40.9678,HELLO
So it is supposed to print thi point at the X and Y and also label =
it with HELLO
The shapefile I create works in Arcview itself but not under =
php/mapscript with this layer definition in the mapfile:
LAYER
NAME mylayer
TYPE point
STATUS ON
DATA mylayer
LABELCACHE ON
LABELITEM 'NAME'
CLASS
NAME 'NAME'
SYMBOL 'circle'
SIZE 5
COLOR 64 0 64
LABEL
TYPE truetype
# FORCE true
FONT arial
COLOR 64 0 64
ANGLE AUTO
POSITION AUTO
MINSIZE 2
SIZE 6
END
END
END
It gives an error about the NAME column.=20
Any ideas on creating a simple, labelled point layer?
Have a nice day.
Murat Isik
