[mapserver-users] drawing a north arrow on a map

[John Beck]

Dear list,
I'm hoping someone can help me.
 Following the instructions in the wiki, I am trying to add a north
 arrow to a map. I've got a basic north arrow image (north.gif),
I've added a pixmap symbol referencing it, and I've added a layer to the
map.However, the GIF never shows. I've tried this in both a mapscript
app and the basic Itasca demo, same result. I know there is nothing
wrong with the GIF or symbol definition. I found one solution in 
which a empty STYLE object that was needed but I am not sure how to implement.
Can anyone help?
