[OpenLayers-Dev] tinyows and OL WFS Filters using PropertyIsLike

[Paul Spencer]

I have discovered that in the tinyows schema, it has escape for v1 and  
escapeChar for v1_1_0 so I am going to go ahead and prepare a patch  
based on option 2 below by adding PropertyIsLike to the v1_1_0 code.   
If this ends up being wrong, we can discuss it in the ticket that I  
will create for the patch.

Cheers

Paul
