[OpenLayers-Dev] WFSDescribeFeatureType request in 2.7-rc1 extra "?"

[Alexandre Dube]

I tried an other request and got the same problem.  In Requests.js at 
line 90, that's where it gets its extra "?"

OpenLayers.loadURL(
    "/bdga/getLayersByType.php?mapfile="+szMapfile, '', this, setLayers);

The request becomes :
.../bdga/getLayersByType.php?mapfile=/mypath/bdga.map?
