Subject: [Mapserver-users] .map file help

Hello All,

I believe I have tracked down my query by point problem.  I think it is my
.map file.  What I am wanting to do is to return the state name (field is
something like state_name in shape file) when the user clicks on it.  But I
am getting "no records found" when I click on the state.  Here is my .map
file.  Is there another class or something I need to add to return state
name? thankyou
