<P><FONT SIZE=2 FACE="Arial">Hello list,</FONT>
</P>
<P><FONT SIZE=2 FACE="Arial">I try to show a legend for my base WMS layer. But I don't know how to realsie it. Is there a possibility in OpenLayers to show a legend in a div?</FONT></P>
<P><FONT SIZE=2 FACE="Arial">I want to have a legend like this:</FONT>
</P>
<P><FONT SIZE=2 FACE="Arial">0 - 0.5</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2 FACE="Arial">>0.5 - 1</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2 FACE="Arial">>1 - 2</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2 FACE="Arial">>2 - 3</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2 FACE="Arial">>3 - 4</FONT>
</P>
<P><FONT SIZE=2 FACE="Arial">I know the GetLegendGraphic Parameter for WMS, but if I use this my legend always looks like this:</FONT>
</P>
<P><FONT SIZE=2 FACE="Arial">0 - 0.5</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2 FACE="Arial">0.5 - 1</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2 FACE="Arial">1 - 2</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2 FACE="Arial">2 - 3</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2 FACE="Arial">3 - 4</FONT>
</P>
<P><FONT SIZE=2 FACE="Arial">But with this you don't know which is the class for 0.5. Is there a dynamic way to create the legend, My data is in an postgres database and I use UMN Mapserver for the WMS.</FONT></P>
