Layer working in mapfile, not (fully) working within PHP

[Hoeven, Maarten van der]

Re-sending (might be missed because I send it during the weekend. My
apologies if my re-sending seems pushy)

Hi list,

thanks for all your help; all suggestions are most useful!

My problem is, when I use the layer-definition from the mapfile, the
countries as well as the country names are displayed. However, when I
dynamically build my layer in PHP (commenting out the whole
'country_name' layer-definition in the mapfile, of course), the
countries are displayed okay, but the country names are *not* displayed
at all. I do want to display the country names from the layer I defined
in the PHP script.

Any guru can see what's wrong?

All the best,
Maarten


=== mapfile ===
LAYER
  NAME country_name
  METADATA
    "RESULT_FIELDS" "CNTRY_NAME"
 END
  TYPE POLYGON
  STATUS ON
  DATA country_eca
  LABELITEM 'CNTRY_NAME'
  CLASSITEM 'CNTRY_NAME'
  CLASS
    NAME 'CNTRY_NAME'
    STYLE
       OUTLINECOLOR 0 0 0
       COLOR 255 255 191
    END
    LABEL
        POSTLABELCACHE TRUE

       MINFEATURESIZE 40
       POSITION CC
       PARTIALS FALSE
       COLOR '#000080'
       SIZE GIANT
    END
END
END # layer

=== php script (part of it) ===
    $layerObj1 = ms_newLayerObj($gpoMap);
    $layerObj1->set("name","country_name");
    $layerObj1->set("type",MS_LAYER_POLYGON);
    $layerObj1->set("status",MS_ON);
    $layerObj1->set("data","country_eca");
    $layerObj1->set("labelitem","cntry_name");

    $layerObj1->setMetaData("result_fields","cntry_name");

    $classObj1 = ms_newClassObj($layerObj1);
    $classObj1->set("name","cntry_name");
    $styleObj1 = ms_newStyleObj($classObj1);
    $styleObj1->color->setRGB(255,255,191);
    $styleObj1->outlinecolor->setRGB(0,0,0);

    $classObj1->label->set("size",MS_GIANT);
    $classObj1->label->set("position",MS_CC);
    $classObj1->label->set("minfeaturesize",40);
    $classObj1->label->set("partials",MS_FALSE);
    $classObj1->label->color->setRGB(0,0,80);

    $layerObj1->draw($img);
