[OpenLayers-Users] Re: Get Features from a WMS Layer

[IvanBell]

One final thing before I sleep.  The following query (typed directly into the
browser) returns the layer's features:




http://localhost:8081/geoserver/wfs?service=wfs&version=1.1.0&request=GetFeature&typeName=MyMap:MyLayer



Executing the query above returns the following:




<wfs:FeatureCollection numberOfFeatures="22"

So, executing the query directly to the map server (i.e., GeoServer) works. 
What is the equivalent "new OpenLayers.Layer.Vector" call and the
corresponding "featureType" and "featureNS"?
