Hi Roald, Adding propertyNames (attributes of the feature) to the protocol solves the problem with the geometry for MapServer 5.6.1. First I thought it wouldn't work, because i added msgeometry instead of msGeometry. And I have to add srsName to the protocol, what for version 5.2 is not needed.

Example: propertyNames: 'year,seq,name,storm_start,storm_end,msGeometry'.split(',') Note that MapServer by default chooses 'msGeometry' as the name of the geometry attribute even though it might be called 'the_geom' or 'wkb_geometry' on the data source. In your case it's 'location' I presume.
