[Users] [OpenLayers-Users] Highlight features in WMS Layer

[Smaran Harihar]

Ok so I made the following changes,

control: new OpenLayers.Control.SLDSelect(
OpenLayers.Handler.Polygon, {
    displayClass: 'olControlSLDSelectPolygon',
    layers: [pima, states],

Assigned the layers to the SLD. Which I did not want it to be hardcoded.

    eventListeners: {
        "selected": function (evt) {
            //features.removeFeatures();
            var pfilter = new OpenLayers.Filter.Spatial({
                type: OpenLayers.Filter.Spatial.INTERSECTS,
                value: evt.feature.geometry

I am facing a problem over here as Firebug is giving an error,

evt.feature is undefined

How do I collect the geometry now?

            });
            var propNames = [];

The reason I placed a empty array was that previously I wanted to display
all the columns in the attribute table, and that is what it was doing. So
now if I want all the columns to be added do I need to add the names of all
the columns one by one?

            //var layerNode = getLayerNode(combo.value);
            var layerNode = tree.getSelectionModel().getSelectedNode();
            if (layerNode !== null) {
                wfsProtocol = new
OpenLayers.Protocol.WFS.fromWMSLayer(layerNode.layer);
                wfsProtocol.read({
                    filter: pfilter,
                    callback: processSpatialQuery,
                    scope: new OpenLayers.Strategy.BBOX()
                });

            } else {
                alert("Please select a Map Layer");

            }
        }
    }
})
