Odd Label problem with mapfile

[Andrew Williams]

I'm not a brain at this stuff myself, but I seem to recall having a similar problem. The solution if I'm correct is Type ANNOTATION instead of Type Point.
 
Anyway worth a try in the absence of other replys.

	Hello,
	
	I have an odd problem with some labels in my mapfile.  I have verified that all of the layers work just fine with the exception of the citynames layer, which is just used to make labels from the Cities layer that can be turned on and off (using
	dbox).  The cities layer draws just fine.  The other layers that are included to draw labels work fine.  The database table is intact for the citynames layer.  For some reason, when mapserver is told to draw this layer, it just hangs - refusing to
	draw anything at all.  The other two layers that create labels are polygon layers and this troublesome layer is a point layer.  I assumed that this does not make a difference.  Am I missing something?
