[mapserver-users] How do I make a shapefile polygon thicker within UMN Mapserver

[Dean Gadoury]

Oops. Sorry about that. Hit send by accident.

LAYER
  NAME stlouisxdrive
  GROUP "gv:stlouisxdrive"
  PROJECTION
   "init=epsg:26915"
  END

  TYPE LINE

  DATA "C:/TEMP/64Resolution"

  STATUS ON
        CLASS
           STYLE
             COLOR 255 0 0
             WIDTH 2
           END
        END
 END

If you are using Mapserver 5.x this will work. If you are using an older
version, you will need to use the method another user suggested using the
circle symbol.
