Hello, I'm using MapServer WMS and want to apply some complex SLD to an OL WMS layer. It seems that some features cannot be used in OL, for example putting the text label in the centroid of the polygon or fill-opacity (I can't make this work, even with mapserver). I've been looking to your web page and I've realized that you have a slider bar which lets you set some transparency to the style. How do you do that, if I can ask?? Thanks.

This allows you to apply SLDs externally with no effect on STYLES but you can also undertake a PutStyles if you have that access privilege which will add/update the STYLE. I build a library of SLDs if I want to keep them as permanent filters which is important in my case as I am producing an infinite number of thematic maps (DemographicDrapes) from Census statistics. Have a look at http://demos.numaps.com.au/demographicdrapes.html I have built a complex Style Builder application that allows the user to pretty much change all aspects of a SLD and Save or SaveAs.

What a cool map that is being displayed on my screen! hehe :) Thanks for the reply. Guess I am set in solution 2. Just another question. I don't see SLD BODY on WMS Spec, but I see it on SLD profile for WMS. And it also states: "GetMap is defined in WMS 1.3. The SLD profile for WMS defines additional parameters allowing clients to request layers to be portrayed according to some specified style." Do you know any map server that doesn't support SLD profile for WMS, but supports WMS? I am just curious about it, because imho it doesn't make sense splitting SLD profile for WMS from WMS spec.

Not sure I understand your plan here but sounds like overkill - and may kill off the browser if you have too much data. Ian -- Ian Turton Sent from Houserville, Pennsylvania, United States
