I solved the problem with the following code:

$map =3D ms_newMapObj("bound.map");=20
$image=3D$map->draw();
$path =3D "C:\Inetpub\wwwroot\gall\\\\".$HTTP_GET_VARS["layer"];
$shapefile =3D ms_newShapefileObj($path,-1);

It seems that ms_newShapefileObj() doesn't work with relative paths.

Thanks

  Hi Daniel,
  Nothing to do:
  CAT_VETT.shp, mapfile.map and bound.php are in the same directory.
  A copy of CAT_VETT.shp is also in "shape" subfolder.

  This is the mapfile:
  *******************
  ...
  SHAPEPATH "shape"
  ....
  LAYER
  NAME CAT_VETT
  TYPE POLYGON
  STATUS ON
  DATA CAT_VETT
   CLASS
    COLOR 110 50 100
    OUTLINECOLOR 200 200 200
   END
  END
  ......
  *******************

  I tried also:
  $path =3D "http://192.168.1.51/gall/CAT_VETT";
  $shapefile =3D ms_newShapefileObj($path,-1);

  but the error is always the same:
  ****************************************
  Warning: [MapServer Error]: msSHPOpenFile(): (CAT_VETT) in =
c:\inetpub\wwwroot\gall\bound.php on line 19
  Fatal error: Failed to open shapefile CAT_VETT in =
c:\inetpub\wwwroot\gall\bound.php on line 19
  ****************************************

  Thank you very much

  Valerio Noti
