[Mapserver-users] Label Prefix in Mapfile

[Steve Lime]

Yes, use the TEXT option for classes. That allows you to set the text
for a given
class to a constant value OR to a value made up from various
attributes.

Is it possible to add CLASS specific prefixes to labels via the
mapfile? 

For instance, I have a layer showing municipal boundaries; this layer
is
broken out into several classes, one for City, Town, and Village. For
my
CITY class, I would like my labels to be rendered as 'City of ' +
[MCD_NAME], villages as 'Village of ' + [MCD_NAME] etc.
