[OpenLayers-Users] How to use WCS with OpenLayers

Thanks.....that is all I wanted to know....that OpenLayers does not support wcs...but are there any api mapping libraries/thin clients or Hard clients (apart from ESRI)  available?

As I said....I am running the service through geoserver, but do not have a client to display it......and hence the question....are there any?


Thanks,

Robert

Not sure if I am getting what you're saying here.

OpenLayers is a web mapping client, but has no support for WCS (currently).

Best regards,
Bart

ok....OpenLayers is not a client....but as a javascript mapping library one is able to program a thin-client for web-mapping purposes. And therefore, without splitting hairs, OpenLayers is the engine behind a thin-client based on OL...or am I wrong?
