php_mapscript - showing polygon and point/annotation layers

[Mike Reilly]

Confirming for posterity that I subsequently tried this again to no avail. 
Still getting no symbol drawn on the map, just the label. I also tried with 
$currentlayer->set("status",MS_OFF) and then turning selected layers on with 
set("status",MS_ON) with no joy.

I wonder if there's something to do with my symbol path that is a problem 
when using mapscript that doesn't show up when using cgi-mapserver?
