and now i want to show the WFS service in Open Layers. With WMS service, i haven't any problems. <br><br>I read a lot, the last days, and i realize that i have to locate a proxy host program at a cgi-bin directory.<br>
So, i installed the apache server at 80 port and i downloaded the proxy.cgi from the <a rel="nofollow" target="_blank" href="http://trac.osgeo.org/openlayers/wiki/FrequentlyAskedQuestions#ProxyHost">http://trac.osgeo.org/openlayers/wiki/FrequentlyAskedQuestions#ProxyHost</a> .After that, i edit the first line of this file, determining the directory of the python's executable program (#C:/Python25/python.exe -u), because the operating system of my computer is Windows. Also, i add the variable 'localhost' and 'localhost:8080' at the point of allowedHosts, and i renamed the proxy.cgi file to proxy.py. Afterwards, i type the link <a rel="nofollow" target="_blank" href="http://localhost/cgi-bin/proxy.py">http://localhost/cgi-bin/proxy.py</a> at a web browser and the resulting content of this page is the home page of open layers.<br>
So, all went well !!<br><br>But, when i add the code <i>OpenLayers.ProxyHost="<a rel="nofollow" target="_blank" href="http://localhost/cgi-bin/proxy.py?url=">http://localhost/cgi-bin/proxy.py?url=</a>"</i> at my javascript file and the required code for the WFS service, i can't see the WFS service!!<br>
<br>Why??Any ideas?? i do something wrong??<br><br>Any suggestion is accepted!<br>Thanks!<br><br>
