[OpenLayers-Users] Using TextSymbolizer with SLD question

[Sven Axt]

Hi,

I read about the support for TextSymbolizer in OL 2.7 and immediatly startet trying it.

Therefore I use two wfs-layers (geoserver) wich are rendered in OL as GML2-layers. Following the very usefull sld-example (http://www.openlayers.org/dev/examples/sld.html) I created an SLD file wich you'll find below. The SLD contains among others a TextSymbolizer.

Now everything shows up (using FF3) in the map as expected - except the TextSymbolizer. Examining the DOM in Firebug showed me, that only the TextSymbolizer was ignored.
And I have no idea why.

Perhaps you are able to give me a hint.
Thank you very much in advance.

All the best
Sven Axt


/*
Description:
the first named layer styles a filtered set of polygons - works fine.
the second named layer defines two symbolizers for point data. Only the crosses show up, but no text is displayed.
