Hi Worth: At the moment, you can't get a legend in this case. The legend code 
isn't smart 
Enough to discover potential colors and render them. Also, class names cannot 
be bound to an
attribute...

If you really need legends produced by MapServer then attribute binding 
probably isn't
going to work for you.

Subject: [mapserver-users] How do I get a Legend with a variable COLOR in the 
CLASS

I'm trying to set my colors from a postgres table instead of having many
classes in my mapfile.  Here is an example of what I think I should use to
get a legend for this layer.

CLASS
  NAME [name]
  STYLE
    COLOR [color]
    OUTLINECOLOR 0 0 0
    WIDTH 1
  END
END


Only the NAME line dies with a parse error as it appears to be looking for a
string ([MapServer Error]: getString(): Parsing error near ([name])).  It
seems that the NAME line cannot take an attribute.

How do I get a legend for this layer?

Is this the method I should be using for this use?

Worth
