I want to query selected propertynames from a list of Typenames in Geoserver. I could find an example from OGC WMS 1.1.0 Implementation Specification ( pdf document page 80 Example 10) which is not working for me. Here is the example:

Example 10

Query some properties of a list of feature types. In this case, the attributes WKB_GEOM and TILE_ID are fetched for the INWATERA_1M feature type and all the attributes of feature type BUILTUPA_1M are fetched.

http://www.someserver.com/wfs.cgi& SERVICE=WFS& VERSION=1.0.0& REQUEST=GetFeature& PROPERTY=(INWATERA_1M/WKB_GEOM,INWATERA_1M/TILE_ID)(BUILTUPA_1M/*)& TYPENAME=INWATERA_1M,BUILTUPA_1M

When I try to implement this I got the following error

"Requested property: PropertyName1 is not available" The possible propertyName values are:[PropertyName1, , , , , ]"

It would be great if someone give me a working example for Geoserver.

thank you in advance

can you provide a link to the spec you mean? There is no WMS 1.1.0 and the WFS 1.1.0 (OGC-04-094) does not have an example on either physical or virtual page 80. – iant♦ Mar 4 '11 at 19:11
Here is the link for the pdf : google.com/… – sur Mar 4 '11 at 23:49
I think that link was not the right one, the document name is: Web_Feature_Service_WFS_02-058.pdf, the correct link is : google.com/… – sur Mar 5 '11 at 0:11

I've just tried the following:

http://ian01.geog.psu.edu:80/geoserver/wfs?request=GetFeature&version=1.1.0&typeName=topp:states&outputFormat=GML2&PROPERTYNAME=(STATE_FIPS,STATE_ABBR)

and it seems fine. Can you post a specific URL that doesn't work?

As per the example in the document (ukypssgis.ca.uky.edu/Web_Feature_Service_WFS_02-058.pdf) Page 80, example 10. I noticed two issues: 1) I have changed "PROPERTY=(" to "PROPERTYNAME=(" ,this could be a typo. 2) I have changed "PROPERTY=(INWATERA_1M/WKB_GEOM, " to "PROPERTYNAME=(INWATERA_1M:WKB_GEOM," again this also could be a typo. – sur Mar 8 '11 at 15:52
I was actually trying to query selected propertynames from multiple typenames. I succeded to make one working example. Here is the link. ian01.geog.psu.edu/geoserver/… – sur Mar 8 '11 at 15:54
