[Featureserver] OpenLayers+FeatureServer full transactional example

[Alexandre Dube]

Hi,

  What is the correct way to formulate a "delete" action to 
FeatureServer with OpenLayers ? 

  - tried the AJAX request (same as the featureserver.org example, same 
problem) : got an "invalid json" error message
  - tried with OpenLayers.Request.DELETE : got error 500
  - tried with layer.protocol.commit(features) : got error 500
  - tried to look at the apache and featureserver log : nothing

  but, in the error log of apache I saw "Premature end of script 
headers: proxy.cgi", the proxy sample borrowed from OpenLayers.  Has 
anyone already had this kind of trouble with the proxy ?
