php_Mapscript - display new layer

Tue Jun 6 09:39:49 PDT 2006

Hi,
I'm quite new in php_mapscript. So i start with simple thing!
I try to display a point throught map_script, but i doesn't appear on the map.
Could you what's wrong in my file?
How could i define the location (-90.0 , 10.0) of this point?
Do you have some good tutorials or example for using the php_mapscript class?
Thx for your help.
Julien
