[OpenLayers-Users] WFS layer with a Prefix

[Steve.Toutant at inspq.qc.ca]

I have problem dealing with wfs layer that has a prefix, mostly from 
geoserver and tinyows. Everything works if there is no prefix using 
mapserver. 

getCapabilities is returning this as a layer name for 2 layers
<FeatureType xmlns:geomatique="http://domain.com">
<Name>geomatique:msp_si_casernes_geo</Name>

Using OpenLayers.Format.WFSCapabilities.read
It doesn't return featurePrefix in the object, only the layer name

So when OL creates a DescribeFeatureType request it uses typename=
msp_si_casernes_geo, instead of typename=geomatique:msp_si_casernes_geo

I'm sure there is something I don't understand in the concept of 
namespace, prefix, uri namespace alias, etc.....I read many thread but 
still very confused.
The problem might be on the wfs server side
Help please on how to set a Ol wfs client that will deal with wfs layer 
thas has prefix and also those who have not

Thanks!
