I am adding the layer like this:
var wfs_layer3 = new OpenLayers.Layer.Vector("WFS Layer 3", {
strategies: [ new OpenLayers.Strategy.BBOX(),
saveStrategy],
protocol: new OpenLayers.Protocol.WFS({
url: "/geoserver/wfs",
featureType: "user_layer.layer_name",
featureNS: "http://geoserver.sf.net";,
featurePrefix: "sde",
srsName: "EPSG:900913",
version: "1.1.0",
geometryName:"SHAPE"
})
});
map.addLayers([wfs_layer3]);
