[OpenLayers-Users] GeoServer WPS process fail with OpenLayers 2: “The request body should be contained in a CDATA section”

[Dominik Abrahám]

Hi,

I am trying to create an application with WPS builder like this:
http://dev.openlayers.org/releases/OpenLayers-2.13.1/examples/wps.html
When input format = "text/xml; subtype=wfs-collection/1.0", it creates
input field for name of the layer on my server:

function addWFSCollectionInput(input) {
    var name = input.identifier;
    var field = document.createElement("input");
    field.title = input["abstract"];
    field.value = name + " (layer on the server)";
    addValueHandlers(field, function() {
        input.reference = field.value ? {
            mimeType: "text/xml; subtype=wfs-collection/1.0",
            href: "http://46.28.111.137:8080/geoserver2711/wfs",
            method: "POST",
            body: {
                wfs: {
                    version: "1.0.0",
                    outputFormat: "GML2",
                    featureType: field.value
                }
            }
        } : undefined;
    });
    document.getElementById("input").appendChild(field);
}

This input is required for example by algorithms gs:Clip and gs:Aggregate.
When I'm trying to run some of these algorithms, it returns this kind of
result:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?><wps:ExecuteResponse xmlns:xs="

be contained in a CDATA section, otherwise it will get parsed as XML
instead of being preserved as

How can I fix it?

Thanks
