Hi,

I am new to mapping and mapserver. however I have been
developing web apps for quite a while now.

I have:
- apache
- mysql
- mapserv ( i have compile it with GIf, JPEG and TIFF
support as a CGI).

I also have a set of shape file name:

mhlt.shx
mhlt.shp
mhlt.dbf

The demo application that was available on mapservers
webiste I have install and made it work so my mapserv
cgi is working fine.

however now I am totally confused and stump. how do I
even begin with the above shapefiles?

I am totally new at this and have been trying to
figure things out. any pointers and suggestions will
be greatly appreciated.

thx
