<P><FONT SIZE=2 FACE="Arial">I'm having some difficulty getting features via WFS from MapGuide Open Source and MapGuide Enterprise. This is with the standard Sheboygan sample dataset that already has data exposed via WFS. I also tried this on data.mapguide.com, but apparently the WFS provider is not installed there.</FONT></P>
<P><FONT SIZE=2 FACE="Arial"> I'm having the most success here:</FONT>
