AW: [OpenLayers-Users] WMS GetFeatureInfo values as JSON

Hi,

If you use MapServer, then have a look here:

Betreff: [OpenLayers-Users] WMS GetFeatureInfo values as JSON

Thanks for the tip on my query on how to get WMS GetFeatureInfo as JSON
object:

Following earlier suggestions, I have checked my GetCapabilities
configuration, and the WMS version 1.1.1  shows

<GetFeatureInfo>
        <Format>text/plain</Format>
        <Format>application/vnd.ogc.gml</Format>
        <Format>text/html</Format>
        <DCPType>
          <HTTP>
            <Get>
              <OnlineResource xmlns:xlink="http://www.w3.org/1999/xlink"
xlink:type="simple"
xlink:href="http://mydomain/geoserver/wms?SERVICE=WMS&amp;"/>
            </Get>
            <Post>
              <OnlineResource xmlns:xlink="http://www.w3.org/1999/xlink"
xlink:type="simple"
xlink:href="http://mydomain/geoserver/wms?SERVICE=WMS&amp;"/>
            </Post>
          </HTTP>
        </DCPType>
      </GetFeatureInfo>

Obviously, I cannot see any reference to JSON output here.
Am I supposed to configure my WMS services for JSON output?

If so, would someone explain to me how to configure it?

Thomas
