Hi all,

I have an odd request regarding WFS capabilities. Is it possible to have a WFS mapserver request return gml results without the geometry data?

I know that this seems odd, but it makes sense for what I am doing. I am using a WMS overlay to serve tiles for a large dataset to an overlay on google maps. In order to query specific polygons from that dataset (a shapefile), I am using a WFS GetFeature request. All I need is the id and other parameters of the feature, but not the geometry data (because it is already there from the WMS. Right now I am just parsing out the info I need from the gml at the server level, but it would be much faster if I could get the WFS to return only the feature info minus the geometry data. Is this possible?

Thanks, and thanks for your previous help.
