I think you’d have to associate geometries with the text regardless since MapServer will always apply a spatial filter (based on extent) in addition to whatever non-spatial filter you populate. I could see tying the extent of your project – either a rect or some fancy geometry to each bit of disclaimer text so the spatial filter would always evaluate to true. Might also be possible to use non-map coordinates. You see that typically with inline layers. I might have other ideas if you provided a bit more detail…

Anyone tried this and have an example handy? Thanks bobb I took a speed reading course and read ‘War and Peace’ in twenty minutes. It involves Russia. —Woody Allen
