[OpenLayers-Users] WFS-T example

[Alexandre Dube]

Hi Indika,

  Check out the WFS-T example in this sandbox to see a way of doing it 
with the WFS protocol : 
http://svn.openlayers.org/sandbox/topp/wfs/examples/wfs-protocol-transactions.html

  Download this svn version and try it.  Hope this helps.

Best regards,

Alexandre
