According to http://www.mapserver.org/mapfile/class.html
TEXT ("Area is: " + tostring([area],"%.2f"))
could also be used.
round and tostring are documented in
http://www.mapserver.org/mapfile/expressions.html
round ( n1 , n2 )
tostring ( n1, "Format1" )

Hello,
I have a shapefile with a column of type double that contains values like 2.54
or -2.03.
When I label the geometrie with this column or display this column in my
infotemplate I get the following notation of the values:
2.540e+000
-2.030e+000
If there a way to tell MapSer
