I am trying to use the dot density library from the openlayers symbology but I am running up against the reality that I do not understand how to call vector features properly. The postgres-served shape file I am calling has zip code geometry as well as numerous data cells, of which I need to access only one. I have looked at as many vector tutorials as I can find but nothing has made it easier for me to create a vector layer with all zipcodes and associated table rows. Obviously that is because I do not understand how to call the "features" from the data rows or the "features" which are the polygon objects... here is my call as it stands at the moment. I just tried adding an empty features set for fun, the same code failed without that line... Thanks in advance.

var zipPen = new OpenLayers.Layer.Vector("ZipPen", {
                strategies: [new OpenLayers.Strategy.BBOX(bbox)],
                protocol: new OpenLayers.Protocol.WFS({
                    version: "1.1.0",
                    url: "/geoserver/wfs",
                    featureType: "SPOOL_ZIP_July_1_13_test",
                    geometryName: "the_geom",
                    geometryType: "Polygon",
                    featureNS: "maps.decapower.org/Spool",
                    features: [],
                    srsName: "EPSG:4236"
                })});

map.addLayer(zipPen);

var zipDensityLayer = new ol.thematic.DotDensity( map, {
                    layer     : 'ZipPen',
                    indicator     : 'NMPLTXZ_1',
                    dotValue    : 25,
defaultSymbolizer : { 'pointRadius' : 1, 'fillOpacity' : 1, 'fillColor' : '#ffffff', 'strokeWidth' : 0 }
                    });
