Hi Christian

>From another Christian on the other side of the world. 

Could you please elaborate a little on this. Being new to GeoServer I'm
struggling to understand and use all the different aspects of layers, layer
groups and styles.

My task is to display different layers dependent on scale. Example could be
cost-lines with different level of details used for different scales. Layer
for 1:1.000.000 has fewer details than the corresponding layer for 1:50.000
and so on. 

On the other hand I want to use the same style for the feature independent
of scale. And I don't want to have to maintain the same style in a lot of
different SLD's. (it always goes wrong at some point in maintenance,
forgetting one in the update process)

How can Layer group help me or rather can I use layer group to select the
"correct" layer for display dependent on scale. 

The data are placed in a Oracle Spatial database. The data is presently in
use in an MapInfo based web tool. And from design data has been split into
separate tables for each feature/scale combination.

I have the option of joining the data in one table and add a label to
indicate which scale data is meant to describe. The data are not very
dynamic, so data maintenance is a smaller issue.
