why not use a vrt file instead!  http://www.gdal.org/drv_vrt.html

<OGRVRTDataSource>
    <OGRVRTLayer name="precipitation">
        <SrcDataSource>precipitation.csv</SrcDataSource>
        <GeometryType>wkbPoint</GeometryType>
        <LayerSRS>EPSG:4326</LayerSRS>
        <GeometryField encoding="PointFromColumns" x="lon" y="lat"/>
        <Field name="precipitation_mm" src="prec_mm"/>
    </OGRVRTLayer>
</OGRVRTDataSource>

I don't know why LABELITEM 'filed_3' would not work in your case

You can try to specify column names by using a  .csvt file
http://www.gdal.org/drv_csv.html

        [mapserver-users] OGR csv - no field names



        







Folks,

Can a csv file with no field names as the first row be used as an OGR source?

GDAL creates dummy field names, are these passed to mapserver?

OGRFeature(USA-Hilton):652
 field_1 (String) = -74.16958
 field_2 (String) =  40.73526
 field_3 (String) =  Penn Station

What do we need in the layer to make this work?

LABELITEM 'name' - this throws an error, 'field_3' does not seem to work either.
CONNECTIONTYPE OGR
CONNECTION 'Stations.csv'

Thanks

Ian
