Hi Andrea, I thought of another possibility, but I am not sure here. 1) AFAIK I can pass a SLD as an HTTP Body in a WMS GetMap Request.(Http method POST).
2) If 1) holds true, I would develop a geoserver extension matching a special URL. (e.g. http://localhost:8080/geoserver/statistik/wms/.... ) . Within this extension, I would create a proper SLD and forward the request to the original geoserver wms service, listening on http://localhost:8080/geoserver/wms/... Could this work ?
