You certainly can have STYLEs inside labels. I use this to do shields on county
roads:
CLASS
NAME 'County Road'
STYLE
COLOR 255 255 255
WIDTH 1 MAXWIDTH 1.5 MINWIDTH .75
OUTLINECOLOR 200 200 200
OUTLINEWIDTH 1
END
LABEL
STYLE # shield
SYMBOL 'county_road'
COLOR 255 255 255
OUTLINECOLOR 146 146 146
SIZE 13 MINSIZE 13 MAXSIZE 13
WIDTH .5 MINWIDTH .5 MAXWIDTH .5
END
PRIORITY 1
TYPE TRUETYPE
FONT 'myriad_condensed_web'
SIZE 5 MINSIZE 5 MAXSIZE 5
COLOR 146 146 146
MINDISTANCE 150
ANTIALIAS TRUE
PARTIALS FALSE
MINFEATURESIZE 20
END
END
Where county_road is referencing a true type font glyph. I'm actually doing
some other conversions to remove dependency on ANNOTATION layers and haven't
run into any problems yet. Perhaps the problem isn't with the style placement
in the label but rather the contents of the style. You'd get a parse error
otherwise.

Brent,
I think your right. I was under the impression that STYLE could be within a
LABEL object because since Mapserver 6.2 we could have multiple labels per
class.
Anyways, how can I add road shields in Mapserver 7? Apparently annotation
layers have been removed.
Thanks!
Sincerely,
Mark Volz, GISP

I don't think you can put a STYLE inside a LABEL. You could put it after the
LABEL...

Hello,
I am having trouble adding road shields to my map. The label (and for that
matter the entire class) quits drawing as soon as I uncomment the STYLE block
under label. Please let me know What I can do to add road shields to my roads
layer.
CLASS
NAME "U.S. Highway"
EXPRESSION "A10"
STYLE
WIDTH 5
COLOR 0 0 0
END #STYLE
STYLE
WIDTH 3
COLOR 227 159 2
END #STYLE
LABEL
TEXT '[ROADNUM]'
SIZE 10 #for AGG
FONT vera_sans #for AGG
MINFEATURESIZE 25
MINDISTANCE 200
#STYLE ### Mapserver quits drawing this layer as soon as I uncomment this
block
#SYMBOL './symbols/USHWY.png'
#END STYLE
END #label
END #class
P.S. Eventually I will want to display both the road number shield and the
road name as well.
Thank You
Sincerely,
Mark Volz, GISP
