OpenLayers is a client-side (browser based) mapping library. Since you can't query PostgreSQL directly from a browser, querying your database is a server-side task.

Then you can call this from the client side. > The only OpenLayers-app with search-function that I know is this one: > > http://www.opengeoportail.fr/ > > This is exactly what I would like to have. > > Thank you very much any help on this !! > > Harry Schmidt > > _______________________________________________ Users mailing list [email protected] http://openlayers.org/mailman/listinfo/users
