Hi, http://openlayers.org/dev/examples/wfs-protocol-transactions.html
take a look at the above example .. once you have drawn the polygon then you can add a popup for that feature containing html input controls, Once you have filled the input fields .. you need to make a WFS-T that creates a feature in a published layer. Refer to http://docs.geoserver.org/latest/en/user/services/wfs/reference.html for WFS-T regards, Imran On Mon, Oct 15, 2012 at 2:37 PM, just_cat <[email protected]> wrote: > Hi all, I searched the net and different forums: Yes, this question has been > asked a couple of times before, but never has there been a satisfying answer > or instruction as to how to make it work.
