displaying xy coordinates from database

[Jessica Deegan]

Greetings list,

A newbie to PHP/Mapscript, I am trying to display XY coordinates from a
selected set of points (the XY to be displayed are a different location from
selected point).

As a test, I was successful in adding a dynamic point where a user clicks on
the map using the sample found at
http://mapserver.gis.umn.edu/cgi-bin/wiki.pl?PHPMapScriptAddPoint , but I'm
at a loss to where to begin this process from a database perspective.  My
data are stored in a PostgreSQL database.

Any suggestions or starting points would be highly appreciated.
thanks,
Jessica
