[OpenLayers-Users] get feature info

[Bart van den Eijnden]

Hi Herman,

use OpenLayers.Control.WMSGetFeatureInfo and listen to the getfeatureinfo event, you'll get an array of features, then check feature.attributes for its values.

See:

http://dev.openlayers.org/releases/OpenLayers-2.8/examples/getfeatureinfo-control.html

Best regards,
Bart
