[OpenLayers-Users] GetCapabilities

[Marc Jansen]

Hi Raul,

getFullRequestString is actually a method of instances of e.g. 
OpenLayers.Layer.WMS, so it should be called like this:

var wms_layer = new OpenLayers.Layer.WMS( ... );

wms_layer.getFullRequestString(
  {
    REQUEST: 'GetCapabilities'
  },
  'http://www.example.com/wms-server'
);

It is not a method of the Map-instance.

The second error you get (Access to restricted URI denied) hints that 
you are trying to issue a AJAX Request to another server than the one 
your script is being executed at.

For example it is not allowed for a script running on 
http://abc.example.com to query http://xyz.example.com.

Regards,
Marc
