Hi @tmcw, great module!

I am playing around with this for the first time and figured I would create some in-depth documentation on the Drupal handbook as I did it:
http://drupal.org/node/845852

It's incomplete, but maybe if you have a moment, you can look over it.

Also, I am a stopping/need-to-sleep point where I can't seem to get the VirtualVector layer to work correctly. Maybe my parameters are wrong. From Firebug, it looks like the request to GeoServer is not formatted with any parameters, just the base URL I put into the layer. I'll debug more later, but just curious if you knew something obvious I was missing.

The request that grabs WFS data for a VirtualVector layer should be directed at Drupal, rather than GeoServer - unless you're using a proxy, of course, but it's at least designed to pull from Drupal currently. And an unpatched version of OpenLayers won't work with clicking, since the OpenLayers project hasn't made any effort on committing the vital patch that allows OL to parse CDATA in GML.

Thanks for the documentation, this was most helpful.

I could not get the layer to show up in Drupal; I've checked in geoserver that the WFS from Drupal is correctly received and that's all fine. However I have no direct idea as to where to start looking for the calls to geoserver from Drupal and how they are returned. Any pointers / code I should have a look at?

Thanks!
