You can use mapserver's itemquery mode to highlight a single object

3.6 syntax:
mapserv.exe
?mode=itemquery
&map=mymap.map
&qlayer=region
&mapext=shapes
&pidn=22-41-16-06-1-01-010

4.0 syntax:
mapserv.exe
?mode=itemquery
&map=mymap.map
&qlayer=region
&mapext=shapes
&qitem=pidn
&qstring=22-41-16-06-1-01-010

In my example the layer is named 'rgeion' and has a primary key 'pidn' and 
I want to highlight  record '22-41-16-06-1-01-010'.
