[OpenLayers-Users] Control.GetFeature

[Ivan Grcic]

OpenLayers.Protocol.WFS.fromWMSLayer is just convinient method for
creating OpenLayers.Protocol.WFS from allready defined WMS layer. So
you can just define protocol as:

protocol: OpenLayers.Protocol.WFS({
            readFormat: new OpenLayers.Format.GeoJSON(),
            formatOptions: {
                outputFormat: "JSON"
            },
            url: "http://localhost:8080/geoserver/wfs"
            featureType: "ftName",
            featurePrefix: 'prefix',
            featureNS: "http://ns",
            geometryName: 'geometry',
            maxFeatures: 100
})
