Hi All I am a newbie, so sorry if it seems like I have no idea (it is probably because I really do have no idea).
We have got mapserver up and running, and the WMS is working fine. I have read through the documentation, but I am lost without an more detailed example of a mapfile. I have about 6 shp files. Each file has different features that I want to make into different WMS layers. The data is for a topographical map. For example a file contains roads, power-lines and walking tracks. Each type of road, power-line etc have different tags (some also have the name of the road after a comma). I am assuming this is fairly normal so far. What I want to be able to do is apply a different class (not sure this is the right term) to the roads, the power-lines and the walking tracks. Looks like I need to do some kind of query in the map file. At this stage we have only each file acting as layer. Does anyone have an example mapfile (that splits a SHP file into different layers) that they would be happy to send? I am fairly confident the penny will drop for me if I can see a working example.
