Hi

What I want to do is this:

circle

ogc:PropertyNamefillcolor</ogc:PropertyName>

The field “fillcolor” value is a hex color code that comes with “my” SHAPE-file… I can’t get this to work and my guess is that this kind of operation dosen’t work and that I instead have to use some sort of if-statement for every hex code that could exist in the file… Could someone verify this? J

Best regards,

Mårten

It should work, but two conditions must be respected:
- fillcolor is exactly the name of your attribute (case matters)
- the attribute contains exactly what you'd type in the css parameter
   otherwise, that is, a "#RRGGBB" string (with the sharp at the
   beginning)

If the latter fails you'll get no error report and the line will stay
black.
Cheers

Thanks!
I found what caused the problem, the "fillcolor field" had several spaces after the value. When I removed this the rendering whent as expected.
Thanks again!
