Ok, so that works...curious now if it is possible to make the  
gml:points features so I can use a select like this:

var myStyles = new OpenLayers.StyleMap({
                                "default": new OpenLayers.Style({
                                        pointRadius: "${size}", // sized 
according to size element from  
GML source
                                        fillColor: "#ffcc66",
                                        strokeColor: "#ff9933",
                                        fillOpacity: 0.1,
                                        strokeWidth: 2
                                        }),
                                        "select": new OpenLayers.Style({
                                                fillColor: "#66ccff",
                                                strokeColor: "#3399ff"
                                        })
                                }
                        );

                        olmap.addLayer(new OpenLayers.Layer.GML("GML", gml, 
{styleMap:  
myStyles}));

Thanks again.

Kit
