Zhonghai,
 
PNG is 8bit, PNG24 is 24bit colour, with an 8bit transparency. So for
the ALPHA option, I think you need PNG24. Try this definition:
 
OUTPUTFORMAT
   NAME PNG24
   DRIVER "GD/PNG"
   MIMETYPE "image/png"
   EXTENSION PNG
   IMAGEMODE RGBA
END
 
Then put:
 
TRANSPARENCY ALPHA

in your layer definition (not in OUTPUTFORMAT).
 
regards,
 
Jacob

        Hi,
         
        I am interested in this question, and I've tried like this:
         
        *****
        OUTPUTFORMAT
            NAME "PNG"
            MIMETYPE "image/PNG"
            DRIVER "GD/PNG"
            EXTENSION "PNG"
            IMAGEMODE RGBA
            TRANSPARENCY ALPHA
          END  
        *****
        I've noticed that there is no PNG24 output image format in the
mapfile reference document, and therefore I've used PNG.
         
        but, I get the followig error message:
         
        loadOutputFormat(): Unknown identifier. Parsing error near
(TRANSPARENCY):(line 114) 
         
        which means I caon only use TRANSPARENT as the the identifier as
listed in the mapfile reference document, and this parameter can only be
truned on or off.
         
        any further ideas, Steve?
         
        1000 thanks.

                Hi,
                
                I have added 'ANTIALIAS TRUE' to all my STYLE objects
                but I do not see any difference in the map that's 
                displayed. I was hoping to see smooth lines but there
                was no difference in the way lines(representing roads)
                are drawn with or without anti-aliasing. Is this the
                expected behavior? How can I get smooth lines? 
                
                My layer is defined as follows:
                
                LAYER
                   NAME         roads
                   DATA         droad1
                   STATUS       OFF
                   TYPE         LINE
                
                   PROJECTION
                        "init=epsg:4326"
                   END
                
                   CLASS
                     NAME       "Roads"
                     MAXSCALE     80000
                     MINSCALE     20000
                     STYLE
                       ANTIALIAS    TRUE
                       COLOR        150 150 150
                       WIDTH        3
                     END
                     STYLE
                       ANTIALIAS    TRUE
                       COLOR        255 255 255
                       WIDTH        1
                     END
                   END
                END
