Hi list,<br><br>For a project I need to add a Filter to each WFS GetFeature request. In this case to filter features for a specific user. Since the Filter isn't big, I'd like to use the FILTER parameter of the KVP encoding. The current implementation of a WFS layer always uses the BBOX parameter in the moveTo function however. If adding the FILTER parameter, the WFS returns an exception, because BBOX and FILTER are mutually exclusive.<br>
<br>People came across this before and a ticket has been created already: <a href="http://trac.openlayers.org/ticket/1113">http://trac.openlayers.org/ticket/1113</a>. <br><br>Another solution is not to use the BBOX parameter at all and provide a Filter (that may contain a Bbox constraint, only if you like that ;) ) in the params of the layer. For this I made some small adjustments to the WFS layer implementation. I've created a ticket with a patch here: <a href="http://trac.openlayers.org/ticket/1430">http://trac.openlayers.org/ticket/1430</a> With the useBbox option on a WFS layer, the use of the BBOX parameter in GetFeature requests can be switched off.<br>
<br>Hope this is useful for others as well.<br><br>Regards,<br>Thijs
