[OpenLayers-Dev] Get the center and radius of a circle

[Alexandre Dube]

Hi Claudia,

   To get the center of your feature :
yourFeature.geometry.getCentroid();

   Register in the database : you can use the WFS-T protocol with the 
Save strategy to do your transactions.  See the following example :
http://www.openlayers.org/dev/examples/wfs-protocol-transactions.html

   You need to have a server supporting WFS-T in order to do so (like 
TinyOWS, GeoServer, etc.).

HTH,

Alexandre
