Ok, I'm still stuck on this.  It seems that none of them work.  Could some
review this to make sure that I'm doing it correctly?

var gml = new OpenLayers.Layer.GML("GML", "./jlpts.gml");
var gmlVector = new OpenLayers.Layer.Vector("GML", gml, {
	format: new OpenLayers.Format.GML(gml),
	formatOptions: {
		xy: false
	}
});
