You didn't say if you're doing this in old or new style templates, but regardless you'd need to do this in javascript. I can illustrate easiest with a new style template since it's all in one place but the idea applies to either:
<!-- MapServer Template --> <script> var length=0; [resultset layer="layer1"] [feature] length += [length]; [/feature] [/resultset] alert("total length=" + length); </script> So, for each feature in layer1 we add to the overall length variable and then output it at the end. Does this help?

Is there a cgi variable for this or a way to distinguish say the first [length] of a line segment returned as apposed to subsequent [length] values returned for the same poly line shape.
