Hi Bart,

Thanks for the quick response :-)

I tried that already, but in the text output, I see ALL columns of the 
table (though not the 'oid' as a normal 'attribute') in the output. But 
there is this line:
'Feature 17246'
Which IS the oid/feature_id....

In the gml I also receive ALL columns in the output, but NO reference to 
this 17246 oid/feature_id/id...

I tried all these:
       "ows_include_items" "all"
       "gml_include_items" "all"
       "wms_include_items" "all"
...

is the oid-column not an official attribute column or something like that?
