Hi Stefanie,
you would use an OpenLayers.Layer.Vector with a OpenLayers.Protocol.WFS
properly configured for your Mapserver WFS (featureType and featureNS). You can
combine this e.g. with a BBOX Strategy, so that is retrieved when the map
extent changes.
Best regards,

OK, I understand that while there is no difference in performance
between layer.WMS and layer.MapServer objects I could use the latter on
a mapfile which is not enabled as WMS. I would thus restrict the
publication to my own geoportal and not make the map (image!) available
to other WMS client

Using the MapServer layer in TileCache is also not recommended, since Python
Mapscript leaks like a sieve. (In theory, it might have slightly lower latency.
In practice, latency to a local HTTP host is so much lower than

Sorry.

There is no MapScript involved, this straight Mapserver CGI.
I don't expect any noticeable performance difference.
You're probably referring to TileCache?

Hey Chris,
I thought the MapServer layer was faster, as it used the Python mapscript
module. Is that not the case?

Hi list members,
I wonder what’s the difference between WMS layers and MapServer layers
from the OL client point of view.
I could substitute variables via the URL either way. Are there any
functionalities or performance characteristics that are only available
to one of them?
