You have to use other parameters to request MapServer directly This is a sample request for mode=nquery (returns all matching results)

I'm going to rephrase this question with a simpler example, as I think it will be more apparent. I have a .shp of all 50 states, and the .dbf file contains the names. I'm serving this up through a Mapserver Layer in OpenLayers (where I have a single tile and I can pan and zoom, and have a projection of epsg:26915 -- my particular projection, I know I wouldn't use this for a map of the whole US). What I want to do is, when I single click on a state, I want to populate a div tag with the name of the state in which I clicked (or better yet, a pop-up with the name of the state from the .dbf data). I saw an example of how to do this with WMS, but I can't seem to translate this into a mapserver layer-type request. Any help is appreciated.
