Thanks Tom and Jacob. That does help. It answers a few questions for me. I'll try the "gml_featureid" "ID" tag as well.

I do see "ID" and "DISTRICT" attributes. Try setting "gml_featureid" "ID" in your mapfile, which should pick up the field and process accordingly. ..Tom > -----Original Message----- > From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] > [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Delfos, > Jacob > Sent: 17 April, 2008 11:55 PM > To: [email protected] > Cc: Brenton Wonders; Russell Huff > Subject: RE: [mapserver-users] MapServer v. 4.10.0 featureid problem > > > Hi Guys, > > I'm no expert on WFS, but I do know ArcGIS. > The FID field is not really an attribute.
