Thanks for your replies. I found some hints for the update by analysing the GML request. Seems the layer is incorrect in the request:
<wfs:Transaction xmlns:wfs="http://www.opengis.net/wfs"; version="1.0.0" service="WFS"> <wfs:Update typeName="features"> .... Indeed, "features" is not the layer address. With the correct typeName (G4WD:tasmania_water) it worked (I tried with the GeoServer request demo form). Here some snippets of my code: /* getting the layer */ var water = new OpenLayers.Layer.WFS( "Water", "/geoserver/wfs", {typename: 'G4WD:tasmania_water'}, { typename: 'tasmania_water', featureNS: 'http://www.mapmap.org/g4wd', extractAttributes: false } ); /* the modify control */ /* first some options */ var modifyOptions = { onModificationStart: function(feature) { OpenLayers.Console.log("start modifying", feature.id); }, onModification: function(feature) { OpenLayers.Console.log("modified", feature.id); }, onModificationEnd: function(feature) { OpenLayers.Console.log("end modifying", feature.id); /* the UPDATE state is modified here!!!! */ feature.state = OpenLayers.State.UPDATE; }, onDelete: function(feature) { OpenLayers.Console.log("delete", feature.id); } }; var modify = new OpenLayers.Control.ModifyFeature(water,modifyOptions); map.addControl(modify); I then use the commit method of the WFS layer. So, anything I missed in the use of OpenLayers API? Thanks!

I hope I can throw an eye on it, but I don't think I will have time soon. However, don't hesitate to send snippets of code so that I can reproduce your test case.
