Hi List,

I've got some issues with labels.

1) I want to label my layer using WRAP as my object names are big so =
they overlap.
 here is my layer def.

# to disply district name  on map
LAYER # start of the "label district" layer object
  CONNECTIONTYPE postgis
  NAME "dist_label"
  CONNECTION "host=3D34.3.40.1 port=3D343 user=3Dtest password=3Dtest =
dbname=3Dtest"
  DATA "wkb_geometry from test_poly"
  STATUS OFF
  TYPE ANNOTATION
  LABELITEM "admin_name"
  CLASS
    NAME "dist_label"
    LABEL
      FORCE TRUE
      POSITION CC
      FONT fritqat-italic
      TYPE truetype
      SIZE 6
      COLOR 0 0 0
       WRAP 20
    END
  END # end of class object
END # end of layer object
I get this error when I include "wrap"
Warning: MapServer Error in getCharacter(): (20):(259)=20
Any idea??

2) One of the of the polygon does not get labeled, although I can query =
it and get right result.!!!

I'll appreciate any input from you guys
Many Thanks
Nida.
