Yes it works when I launch the request with 
&map.layer[RSS_MPOC].class[classe1_sign]=TITLE+NEWTITLE
The problem is I have several classes to modify let say 10.
That gives a long url, perhaps too long for a GET request
...&map.layer[RSS_MPOC].class[classe1_sign]=TITLE+NEWTITLE
1&map.layer[RSS_MPOC].class[classe2_sign]=TITLE+NEWTITLE2....

using runtime substition would give 
...&classename1=NEWTITLE1&classename2=NEWTITLE2

I will create a ticket asking for this feature
thanks for your help,
Steve

RE: [mapserver-users] CLASS NAME Runtime substitution Variable








Hi Steve: Have you tried just tagging 
&map.layer[RSS_MPOC].class[classe1_sign]=TITLE+NEWTITLE on to a 
GetLegendGraphic request? 
 
Supporting runtimes for name isn?t a technical issue, just hasn?t been 
asked for?
 
Steve

Subject: [mapserver-users] CLASS NAME Runtime substitution Variable 
 
Hi 
My users will have the option to request a new map by changing YEAR. With 
Openlayers I use vendorParams to add new parameters in the getMap request. 
I use the YEAR parameters as a  Runtime substitution Variable for FILTER 
in the mapfile, pretty simple 

My problem is for GetLegendGraphics because the class name will have to 
change on each request. I know that it is not possible yet to use Runtime 
substitution Variable on CLASS NAME. Is it because no one request for it 
or it is technically not possible? 
The thread below discuss on using CLASS TITLE to do that 
http://osgeo-org.1560.n6.nabble.com/runtime-substitution-class-name-td4228412.html 


the GetLegendGraphic request look like 
...&map.layer[RSS_MPOC].class[classe1_sign]=TITLE+'>= 2.38 <=56' 

If I need to use this technique how can I send 
&map.layer[RSS_MPOC].class[classe1_sign]=TITLE+NEWTITLE as a parameter to 
the GetLegendGraphic  request? 
thanks
