[OpenMap Users] Displaying shapeFile attributes

Greetings!

Hope you can help, this problem shouldn't be too testing for you experts!

I am using the Simple Http Image Server to server my map data over the
internet...

I have included a shapeFile in my openmap.properties file like so:

tellus.class=com.bbn.openmap.layer.shape.ShapeLayer
tellus.prettyName=Tellus
tellus.shapeFile=data/shape/TellusBasins.shp
tellus.spatialIndex=data/shape/TellusBasins.ssx
tellus.lineColor=0066cc
tellus.fillColor=11ff0000

The shape file defines a number polygons. Each polygon has a
'basin_name' attribute. Is it possible to display the basin_name
attribute on the map with a simple command (ie. tellus.basin_name =
visible) or is more work required?

I have searched the API documentation but couldn't find any relevant
information. Thanks in advance, Chris!
