[OpenLayers-Dev] Connecting to a WFS server

[Xurxo Mendez]

Hi Andrés,

I didn't test it, I'm talking from memory... Assumming the namespaces are
ok, have you tried specifying the feature prefix? Something like this:


   1. var wfslayer = new OpenLayers.Layer.Vector(
   2.         "Concellos Galicia (WFS)",
   3.         {strategies: [new OpenLayers.Strategy.BBOX()],
   4.          protocol: new OpenLayers.Protocol.WFS({
   5.              url:  "http://localhost:8080/geoserver/wfs",
   6.              featureType: "CONCELLO_25",
   7.              featurePrefix: "Galicia"
   8.              featureNS: "http://www.openplans.org/topp"
   9.          })
   10.         }
   11.     );


Best regards,
