1) please make sure the list is CC'd on responses so everyone gets the 
answers and if I'm not available others can answer your messages.

2) Get a copy of the MAPFILE reference from the mapserver home page off 
the documentation link and you will see that the TEXT item should be 
part of the CLASS block not the STYLE block
