[OpenLayers-Users] Re: Search functionality in Openlayers/Geoserver

[Vikash Talanki]

@sukucha,

  The idea I got is:

Step 1: User has to check only one layer(the layer in which he want to
search) in layerswitcher before searching . But how to get which layer has
been selected??

Step 2: After knowing the selected layer , Using php search that
corresponding table for the search string in names column , if it is present
get the latitude and longitude values. But how to get these values and what
if they are polygons/lines???

Step 3: how to send these latitude longitude values to JS so that I can zoom
to that point???


Is there any better way than this???
