This kind of questions come back regularly. You will find information in
the ML archive.
Particularly :
http://mapserver.gis.umn.edu/data2/wilma/mapserver-users/0303/msg00375.html

this is a sample code, where the goal is to create shapefile from an X/Y
postgresql points database. The language is PHP, where phpmapscript
extensions provide a way to create .shp, .shx and wher php-dbase module
provide a way to create a dbase file with all attributes you need
(label, labelsize, symbol, symbolsize, etc ....)

Regards,

Lionel
