Great. It was not obvious for me but by using the & format the extra parameters in XML definition file works fine. I found also another not totally obvious demand when writing the XML file. The value of TYPENAME must include the namespace part. This setting works <URL>http://hip.latuviitta.org/cgi-bin/tinyows? TYPENAME=lv:municipalities&MAXFEATURES=2</URL> But this lazy written definition without namespace does not <URL>http://hip.latuviitta.org/cgi-bin/tinyows? TYPENAME=municipalities&MAXFEATURES=2</URL> What makes it not obvious is that namespace is not needed if command is sent directly without using the XML definition file ogrinfo "wfs:http://hip.latuviitta.org/cgi-bin/tinyows?maxfeatures=2"; municipalities If behaviour cannot be changed (or is not wise to change) so that namespace is not necessary then it would be good to edit documentation a little bit: Note: the URL must be XML-escaped, for example the & character must be written as & and the TYPENAME parameter must be written with the namespase as ns:typename Finally, could it be so that a list of values is not properly supported as TYPENAME or am I writing it somehow wrong again? Ogrinfo does not find any layers if I write the following into XML file, instead of two layers as I expected. <URL>http://hip.latuviitta.org/cgi-bin/tinyows?TYPENAME=lv:mml_railway,lv:municipalities</URL> -Jukka Rahkonen- _______________________________________________ gdal-dev mailing list [email protected] http://lists.osgeo.org/mailman/listinfo/gdal-dev
