Hi Joerg,

try:

        $oMap = ms_newMapObj("your.map");
        // obtain the layer object:
        $oLay = $oMap->getLayerByName("citylabels");
        // obtain a shape object with the fields of a form (in this case they 
are
named 'X' and 'Y'):
        $oShape = ms_shapeObjFromWkt("POINT(".$_REQUEST['X']."
".$_REQUEST['Y'].")");
        // set the text property of the shape object:
        $oShape->set("text","ciao");
        // add the shape to the layer:
        $oLay->addFeature($oShape);
        // draw the map:
        $oImage = $oMap->draw();
        $mapImage_url = $oImage->saveWebImage();

I tried and it works well.
You can create how many features you want.
Hope it is useful...

ciao
