Hi all, I know it's been asked before, but after hitting my head against many a wall I humbly ask again:
I've been attempting to get the rss examples in general, and georss.html example, in particular to work with an HTTP URL. As instructed in the FAQ, I saved the proxy.cgi script from the svn download in a cgi-bin folder within my local examples folder. Then I set the proxyhost variable to OpenLayers.ProxyHost = "/cgi-bin/proxy.cgi?url="; When I navigate to the script (http://localhost:8888/openlayers/examples/cgi-bin/proxy.cgi) the resulting content is the text of the script and not the openlayers site. (I do not know if this is a sign of a problem). When I attempt to load the feed (http://www.greenwich-church.net/GeoRSS.xml) in georss.html, "GeoRss.xml" shows up as an overlay, but no data registers on the map. When I load this same feed on the openlayers version (http://www.openlayers.org/dev/examples/georss.html) "Greenwich Church" shows an an overlay along with corresponding data. I have tried various combinations of where to save the proxy script (e.g., in the examples folder with the georss file and the variable as OpenLayers.ProxyHost = "";) and I have tried variations where the AddHandler section of my httpd.conf knows to call python (as instructed here http://gist.fas.harvard.edu/chgis/?p=14). Any help is greatly appreciated. Best, Alyssa. PS. I am not that interested in greenwich churches. . . it was just an easy test case. _______________________________________________ Users mailing list [email protected] http://openlayers.org/mailman/listinfo/users
