Hi James,
I've been fiddling with this also. But in
http://mapserver.gis.umn.edu/docs/reference/mapfile/variable_sub/
it states that since Mapserver 4.10.1 the only keywords that support
variable substitution are: DATA TILEINDEX CONNECTION FILTER and EXPRESSION
Don't know if somebody can confirm that?

Hi,
I am trying to place a string at a known position.
The string must be passed in the URL (variable substitution).
I was able to use variable substitution with the FILTER tag.
But in this case, I can't make it work with the TEXT tag and found
nothing on the list.
Anybody knows how to do it ??
