[mapserver-users] Styling a WFS ? or not ?

[Jeff McKenna]

Hi Mathias,

Styling of WFS services happens on the client-side.  For example, see 
this WFS-client layer example, where you can set any color that you wish 
for this 'continents' layer that is served through a remote WFS service 
: https://www.mapserver.org/ogc/wfs_client.html#example-wfs-layer  You 
can copy/paste that entire layer into your own mapfile (and change the 
COLOR values) and then execute it with a shp2img command, to see what I 
mean.

Hope that helps,

-jeff
