[OpenLayers-Users] Save feature

[Alexandre Dubé]

Hi,

   Here's an example [1] that shows how to setup a WFS-T protocol with a 
vector layer and some editing tools.  It should give you a good idea 
about what's required on client-side.

   Also, you'll need a server to manage your transactions to your 
database.  If you currently don't have any, I'd propose the one I 
usually use : TinyOWS.  It's light, easy to setup and connects easily to 
a PostGIS data source.  Follow the installation instructions [2] and try 
installing the demo as well (sudo make install-demo).

   The download url in the doc is invalid.  The good one is [3].

   This "how to" [3] should help a lot, too.

HTH,

Alexandre
