Hi Till,
maybe I forgot to tell you that my data source is a shapefile and not a database.
so if I have good understood the only solution that I have to try is to use an SLD file.
Regards to group the point in such a way in not possible in this case becouse I have a certain number of points and in each request the user should be able to select the point to show.
br,
Valerio.

valerio,
OK, I think you may use more than one subvar, but if there are too many, ...
And there is no way to group the points together in any attribute, which
are shown together?
One solution might be to generate a temporary view in a database (if the
points come out of such) and then
send the name of the view via subvar to your file.
Even better, generate a string out of your selected gid's like
1,3,45,567,789,790
Send this Stringvia subvar to your mapfile and use a "WHERE gid IN ('
YOURSTRING ') in your SQL in the mapfile...
Another possible solution might be...hack around and not really fine,
but write a temporary SLD file - which only works when using mapserver
as WMS server.
You can let a script write a temporary-SLD file, where your filter is
set to your ids and apply this to your getmap request
(&SLD=path/tp/your_name.xml).
To ensure, that only user A uses his filtered SLD, we normally used the
PHP session ID or sth similar for naming the sld.
Many ideas, find the best way for you...
