Hi Barend, doesn't work for me.
<Mapscript - begin>
$parcelLayer = ms_newLayerObj($map);
$parcelLayer->set("connectiontype", MS_POSTGIS);
$parcelLayer->set("name", "parcels");
$connector = "user=web dbname=districts host=localhost";
$parcelLayer->set("connection", $connector);
$sql = "the_geom from hbDistrict.parcels";
$parcelLayer->set("data", $sql);
$parcelLayer->set("status", MS_DEFAULT);
$parcelLayer->set("type", MS_LAYER_POLYGON);
<Mapscript - end>
<Error - begin>

I have a database called districts, a schema called hbDistrict and a table
called parcels. I cannot set the search_path by using the data variable with
"the_geom from hbDistrict.parcels". I have created another database called
test. This database is created without schema's (public schema). The data
variable "the_geom from parcels" works (by works, I mean no errors).

Just use the normal SQL 'prefixing' where eg. public.mytable is the table in
the public schema, or myschema.mytable the same in another schema...
