[OpenLayers-Users] WFS layers loaded are not visible

[Arnd Wippermann]

Hi Alessio,

When you open Firebug after the WFS request choose console and there should
be something like this:

+Get
[proxy-url]?http%3A//[yourWFSserver]%3Ftypename%3DLINES%26maxfeatures%3D100%
26SERVICE%3DWFS%26VERSION%3D1.0.0%26REQUEST%3DGetFeature%26SRS%3DEPSG%3A9009
13%26BBOX%3D793087.132695575%2C6665257.858262645%2C798112.867304425%2C666806
2.141737355

Open the +Get and there you can inspect the response of the request.

And you can open the request in a new tab (right click). There you can
delete the [proxy-url]? part to make the request without the proxy.

I hope, that helps.

Mit freundlichen Grüssen

Hi Arnd,

I had the exactly opposite problem when I tried with geoserver: it worked
with IE6 and not in Firefox...

Now, I am in a linux localhost environment, generating the service with
mapserver and I'm working only with FF.
Firefox console and firebug don't show me any errors.

I also tried your suggestion to modify the proxy script:

Response.ContentType = "text/xml"
Response.CharSet = "iso-8859-1"


but nothing changes.

What do you mean exactly when you say "I grabbed the request from firebug"?
Where I have to look to see the request?

thx for your help
