[OpenLayers-Users] Question on controlling WFS layer based on scale

[Eric Lemoine]

Hi

In principle you can control this with maxResolution and/or
minResolution options set in the layer. Though I'm not sure how a
Layer.WFS will behave in that case - will it stop fetching features
from the server when it's out-of-range? We can hope so...

Cheers,

Eric
