<div style="word-wrap:break-word">Hi Zoran,<div><br></div><div>basically it just uses WFS Web Feature Service under the hood. So you need to understand that protocol.</div><div><br></div></div></blockquote><div><br></div>

<div style="word-wrap:break-word"><div></div><div>After that configure your OpenLayers protocol which will be used by GeoExt search components.</div></div></blockquote><div><br></div><div>Yup, I have reconfigured the code from example to use my local Geoserver, no problem there.</div>

</div></blockquote><div><br></div><div>This was actually my first step. Everyone seems to recommend Firebug, as soon as you mention "javascript" :-).</div><div> </div><div>I'm still a long way away from searching through my data :-). I find this quite frustrating. There are some examples with basic functionality, but anything more complicated than overlaying your data over google Maps... good luck finding that! I understand that people capable of coding such a function do not want to "open their cards" completely, and give away for free their hard earned knowledge, but I find it almost impossible to work through existing documentation, and as much as I would like to _pay_ someone to teach me these things, I haven't found anyone to pay to... As I can see, only OpenGeo is giving commercial support, and this is only "face to face", no "e-learning" solution...</div>
