[OpenLayers-Users] Labels on WFS layers

[Luís de Sousa]

Dear Arnd,

Tank you for your input but that isn't working either. Please take a
look at the attached code; I'm using Geoserver's demo Tasmania layers,
hope you have that at hand. With this code the cities' colouring is
set nicely but no city names to see.

Thank you,

Luís
