[OpenLayers-Dev] WMS 1.3.0 issue

[Bart van den Eijnden]

Hi,

but parseFloat("1.3.0") yield 1.3, so what is the problem?

Best regards,
Bart

By now I'm solving it like Godiva2 people do (http://behemoth.nerc-essc.ac.uk/ncWMS/godiva2.html), by adding two classes, WMS1_1_1.js(http://behemoth.nerc-essc.ac.uk/ncWMS/js/WMS1_1_1.js) and WMS1_3.js (http://behemoth.nerc-essc.ac.uk/ncWMS/js/WMS1_3.js), and initializing my layer as a WMS1.3 instance. Another way could be to avoid those kind of float-based checkings. Am I missing something important (I'm still starting with OpenLayers) or it's the way it must be used? Thank you in advance,
