<P>Right now, you don't need to specify a style. OL will use the default style.
Later, when it works, put your own style. Keep it simple as possible for
now.</P>
<P>4)</P>
<P>In Firebug, check if the request is being done</P>
<P>5)</P>
<P>If not, or just in case, use a local proxy to ensure you are not using
different domains, i¨¦ OpenLayers.ProxyHost = "/cgi-bin/proxy.cgi?url=";</P>
<P>6)</P>
<P>Check once more the WFS post request and answer in Firebug</P>
<P>Good luck,</P>
