Hi all.
I have 10 WMS layers (polygons) which do not overlap. I'm trying to panZoom
to the center of the polygon which user clicked. I registered
"featureselected" events on all WMS layers, like this:
for(var i in map.layers[layer]) {
mapa.events.layers[layer] = new
OpenLayers.Control.GetFeature({
protocol:
OpenLayers.Protocol.WFS.fromWMSLayer(map.layers[layer],{
geometryName:
'geometry',
srsName: "EPSG:900913"
}),
hover: false
});
mapa.events.layers[layer][i].events.register("featureselected", this,
function(e) {
var objekt = e.feature;
var bbox =
(objekt.geometry.bounds);
var newcenter =
(bbox.getCenterLonLat());
mapa.panTo(newcenter);
}
And this works. Map gets centered to the object that I have clicked. But as
I see, there are 10 post request to Geoserver, featureselected is triggered
on every WMS layer. Is this not an overhead? Why is event featureselected
triggered, even I have clicked outside a layer?
1. Is this normal behavior?
2. What would happen if I have 100 layers?
3. Should I use different approach? (To make invisible WFS layers on top of
WMS layers, and then register featureselected to WFS layers?)
