I find it and read it, but I need to read it again :)

The WFS server is MapServer and my local test works correctly but not the 
server. I guess some difference but I don't know why or which. Does it seems 
possible to you that the EPSG database is not up tu date and can be the reason 
of this difference?

Indeed, it works much better in this way :)
