Hopefully I am not misunderstanding your question.
Set up a filter, add it to your vector layer, and then zoom to the feature if
that is your objective
filter = new OpenLayers.Filter.Comparison({
type: OpenLayers.Filter.Comparison.EQUAL_TO,
property: "foo",
value: '123'
});
selLayer = new OpenLayers.Layer.Vector("Selected", {
strategies: [new OpenLayers.Strategy.Fixed()],
styleMap: styleMap,
filter: filter,
protocol: protocol
});
map.zoomToExtent(selLayer.getDataExtent());

Subject: [OpenLayers-Users] Zoom to a particular feature
Hello everyone,
I have this webpage where I must zoom to a particular feature that
matches a string given by the user. A similar issue has been
previously raised in this thread:
http://lists.osgeo.org/pipermail/openlayers-users/2011-March/019820.html
Where a GetFeature request is suggested to obtain the bounding boxes
of the layer's features. The problem is that I have layers with about
a thousand features, which quickly clog the webpage with a slow
connection.
My question is: can I obtain the bounding box for a particular feature
that matches a particular condition such as ATTRIBUTE=KEY with a
GetFeature request? Or using a different method?
Thank you,
Luís
