[mapserver-users] changing dynamically LABEL BACKGROUNDCOLOR

[Lime, Steve D (DNR)]

Actually I just ran a test against 5.6 and found I could change a labels background color via URL. Syntax is:

  map.layer[some_layer].class[0]=LABEL+BACKGROUNDCOLOR+255+0+0+END

Hallo Steve,

I can try to hack the source (or rather I'll ask a workmate). More details were welcome, thanks.

Regards,
Tommaso

Been on a short holiday, where did this get left? If you can hack the source it's a very simple change (I think) to maplexer.l to allow the updates you need. I can provide more direction if necessary.  - Steve

Thanks, this were a solution but I should radically change my project. I will try it if there is not other ways.
Other ideas?
