Hi Jim, I think you can pass an sld style in the sld_body parameter of your request. An other option is to create an sld clientside and save that somewhere geoserver knows of and pas a normal wms request.

Is there a way to take all of the client-side options and pass them in a request to GeoServer so that GeoServer will interpret and style the variable shape data correctly?

There isn't naything that you can do in OpenLayers that you can't do with some other server side rendering code -- either using MapServer or some other tool. You really aren't going to be able to render that many things at once in a clientside browser. Other suggestions people have offered, like setting a max for features returned at 100 or some such, also likely bear investigation. -- Chris > Thanks, > Jim > > Jim Meyer > Java Programmer > ConceptSolutions, LLC > We Make Business Intelligent > 703.889.8434 [desk] > 703.391.9041[fax] > www.Concept-Solutions.com > > -----Original Message----- > From: Till Adams [mailto:ad...@terrestris.de] > Sent: Tuesday, September 22, 2009 1:00 PM > To: jim.me...@concept-solutions.com > Cc: users@openlayers.org > Subject: Re: [OpenLayers-Users] Performance Tuning in Internet Explorer > > Jim, > > if it is just necessary to *SHOW* the shapes you probably might check to > serve them as WMS (try UMN or GeoServer) or pure as UMN-CGI service ? > > Doing that, your performance is an issue of the WMS server and not of > OpenLayers and there are many screws to work on like indexing, > scale-dependency and so on...and you are more browser independet, > because the only thing to show is an png or gif image. > > Till > > > > Hi Christopher, > > > > We are rendering active airspaces on our map.
