[mapserver-users] ICON Placing co-ordinates.....

[Steve Lime]

You'd use the icon as a symbol like so:

LAYER
  NAME 'TheIcon'
  STATUS DEFAULT
  TYPE POINT
  FEATURE
    # This is where you specify position on the map
    POINTS x y END
  END
  CLASS
    STYLE
      SYMBOL "2.gif"
    END
  END
END
