[Geoserver-users] WMS OGC-filter fails with “I dont understand the tag: gml:Polygon”

I’m trying to construct an OGC filter to pass to a WMS GetMap request to GeoServer but I can’t seem to do it. The goal is to show the parts of the layer that intersects with a supplied polygon.

Here is an explanatory image: http://moonlite.github.io/files/description.png

When I run the query I don’t get a result but get this in the server logs:

org.xml.sax.SAXException: Attempted to construct illegal filter - I dont understand the tag: gml:Polygon. HINT: tags are case-sensitive!

Any ideas?

The query:

The filter unescaped:

the_geom 1271018,6404272 1271210,6404272 1271210,6404209 1271018,6404272

Thanks in advance!
