Many thanks for the response. However, it still did not fix this issue. It just
puts the label directly on one of the border lines. I suspect that I need to
include the county boundaries as a polygon layer and label them. I will see if
that gets me anywhere.

Subject: [mapserver-users] Polygon labeling
Howdy Folks,
I would like to label the polygons in my map, however none of the labels seem
to fall within my polygons. Instead, they are labeled outside of each shape. I
am displaying the polygons as lines in the map. Is that my problem? If so, how
do I get around it. I have no wish to fill my polygons with color. Thanks in
advance for any help. The relevant portion of my map file is shown below:
LAYER # Counties polygon layer begins here
NAME CountyLine
DATA pgn_ca_county
STATUS DEFAULT
TYPE LINE
LABELITEM "Name"
CLASS
NAME "County Boundary"
STYLE
COLOR 0 115 76
WIDTH 1
END
LABEL # Labeling Test
COLOR 132 31 31
#SHADOWCOLOR 218 218 218
#SHADOWSIZE 2 2
TYPE TRUETYPE
FONT arial
SIZE 8
ANTIALIAS TRUE
POSITION AUTO
PARTIALS FALSE MINDISTANCE 200
BUFFER 4
END
END END
