[OpenLayers-Dev] Connecting to a WFS server

[Daniel Behr]

first I would try it with Strategy.Fixed instead of Strategy.BBOX (if 
your amount of data allows this) and maybe add version: "1.1.0" (or 
1.0.0 depending on what you have) to your Protocol.WFS parameters.

this might help to define the error.
