Isn't this what WMS DescribeLayer is for? What I would do is a WMS DescribeLayer request, which would tell you if a layer if WFS-able or not; if it is, then mark as extractable in your client and chain along. Would this be feasible? ..Tom ------------------------------------------------------------------------- This SF.net email is sponsored by: Splunk Inc.
