SLD parameter ignored on MapServer Debian (solved!)

[Just van den Broecke]

Hi,

I have solved the issue by tweaking .map en .sld settings. My 
installation thus supported SLD (OGR). The SLD filters features from 
PostGIS but missed a (Line)Symbolizer element. Now selected features are 
drawn, very cool! Next trying SLD_BODY=... best,
