Without seeing your actual WFS it is hard to help. But here it goes:
1) featureType should be MonkeyIsland 2) check if your featureNS does not end with / in the XML returned by your WFS, this would also break the parser. So maybe http://www.mapinfo.com/wfs/ instead of http://www.mapinfo.com/wfs Best regards, Bart > > Hello > > I'm having a real hard time changing my OpenLayers.Layer.WFS request to > the > OpenLayers.Layer.Vector with OpenLayers.Protocol.WFS.
