[OpenLayers-Users] WFS ProxyHost

Hello,


I took the one "proxy.cgi" that lies in the examples-directory of the openlayers-code. Copied it on a linux-server, got some problems, did dos2unix and it worked perfectly.


The only thing you might need to change is:


allowedHosts = ['www.openlayers.org', 'openlayers.org', 
                'labs.metacarta.com', 'world.freemap.in', 
                'www.bsc-eoc.org', 'www.yourspecialserver.de',
                'sigma.openplans.org',
                'www.openstreetmap.org']

Best regards, Kai
