[mapserver-users] Multiple geometry layer

[Mark]

Hi all

I was wondering if it is at all possible to define a layer that uses 
multiple geometries specifically point and polygon data? A current 
project I am working on requires that where there is no polygon then 
display a point instead - from what I have read so far this is not yet 
an implemented feature within mapserver. I am trying to avoid having 
dual layers for points and polygons for multiple datasets. Worst case 
would be to use buffered points but again this is not ideal. I would be 
grateful for any ideas that others may have.

Thanks in advance
