 If you are using 5.0, you could try something like :
  map.layer[dfirm_main].class[0].style[0]=COLOR 255 0 0

For now at least, we are still using version 4.10.0. Is there any way to escape the underscore for the layer name part of the string in that version?

Hello all! I have a layer defined similarly to this:
LAYER
 NAME 'dfirm_main'
 ...
END
I would like to change some parameters for this on the fly, however I'm wondering if how to deal with the underscored name in the map_ heirarchy, which depends on underscores as well. The following example does not work, although if I change the layer name to remove the underscore in both the .map and the url, then it does work as expected:
http://example/cgi-bin/mapserv?map=/var/www/maps/nvw-test/
test.map&map_dfirm_main_class_color=255+0+0&mode=map
How can I change parameters via CGI on a layer named with an underscore?
thanks,
