[OpenLayers-Users] OpenLayers.Protocol.HTTP

[Jorge Gustavo]

Hi Robert,

Instead of using just the URL in the browser, call the proxy.cgi in the 
browser, with the full URL.

Something like:
http://localhost/cgi-bin/proxy.cgi?url=http://wfs.data.linz.govt.nz//wfs?version=1.0.0&service=WFS&request=GetFeature&maxfeatu(...)

Also use the same proxy.cgi with and URL that should work, like:
http://localhost/cgi-bin/proxy.cgi?url=http://www.openlayers.org

Or with just:
http://localhost/cgi-bin/proxy.cgi?url=http://wfs.data.linz.govt.nz

I hope it helps,

Jorge
