[OpenLayers-Users] Different behavior of WFS layer in IE 7 andFirefox

[bradleyspencer]

Christian,

I have been able to overlay vectors from a WFS request over GoogleMaps using
default EPSG:4326 in IE7 quite OK. When doing this in FF it is overlayed but
is clearly not in the right position/orientation/scale therefore projection
problem).

I have not used sphericalMercator as I need to overlay data from WMS
services that do not support EPSG:900913.

CubeWerx supports this projection but other remote services that I am using
do not so I am intending to cascade through CubeWerx WMS to handle this
projection.

But I do not understand why if it works in IE it does not also work in FF
the same?

Cheers,

Brad Spencer

Vectors can't be used over Google Maps unless Spherical Mercator is
being used.
