Hi @ all,

i am trying to get a kml-file based on a WFS-Request, but it doesn't work:

The Reuest:

http://localhost:8080/geoserver/wfs?
service=WFS
&REQUEST=GetFeature
&version=1.0.0
&TYPENAME=topp:states
*&format=application/vnd.google-earth.kml+XML*
&width=1024
&height=1024
&srs=EPSG:4326
&layers=topp:states
&styles=population
&bbox=-180,-90,180,90

=> I get the Result as a GML-File, am I doing something wrong?

The Requwst based on a WMS-Request worked dir:

http://localhost:8080/geoserver/wms?
service=WMS
&request=GetMap
&version=1.1.1
*&format=application/vnd.google-earth.kml+XML *
&width=1024
&height=1024
&srs=EPSG:4326
&layers=topp:states
&styles=population
&bbox=-180,-90,180,90

Regards,
Gregor

Funny you get a request at all, we don't have any KML output
out of WFS. The rationale is that KML is styled output, so it
belongs to WMS (as SVG does).

Thought it would not be that difficult to add the output
to WFS as well, especially if the styling rule was to use
the WMS default style anyways.

If you need this, open a jira issue (jira.codehaus.org).

Cheers
Andrea

Thanks for the quick answer Andrea,
at the moment i will use only the KML output based on WMS.
