[Mapserver-users] quick question is this possible?

[Eric Bridger]

The short answer is yes.  All that is possible. I have done it using
Perl mapscript so I'm sure it's possible with PHP. Sorry it's not yet
publicly available.

You'll need county shape files for your state which are available at:

i have read through the mapserver and mapscript intensively.. and im
still not sure if it will do what i need it to do....... We have many
dealers in each state and what i want to be able to do is highlight
their counties and label how many boats they have sold in those counties
via database information for each dealer... i see i can highlight things
but can i label them too (with numbers)??  ive never used mapserve or
map script..but i know php well  i havnt yet installed mapscript or the
mapserver .. if it is possible to do this dynamically using a database 
please reply on what all i would need ( as far as i know i just need
mapserver and mapscript from reading the websites..)  thank you..

ps how do the borders for counties show up all ive seen so far is
states..
