Hello,

I am trying to build a php site with mapscript. So far it goes good but =
in order to have variable SIZE or COLOR settings for different =
situations I have to create multiple layers with almost same settings =
but with different names. For example this is one of them:

LAYER
  NAME roads6
  TYPE line
  STATUS OFF
  DATA ROADS_polyline
  LABELCACHE ON
  LABELITEM 'Name'
  CLASS
   NAME 'Roads'
   COLOR 55 60 223
    LABEL
      TYPE truetype
#      FORCE true
      FONT arial
      COLOR 0 0 0
      ANGLE AUTO
      POSITION AUTO
      MINSIZE 2
      SIZE 6
   END
  END
END

Within php I know how to make a layer ON:

$layer =3D $map->getLayerByName(roads6);
$layer->set("status", MS_ON);

Just like that, what are the ways to set the both COLORs and SIZE? I =
wish the mapserver site had more examples :(

Have a nice day.
