[Feature Request] Refresh layers strategies. #89

Open Christophe31 opened 12 years ago

Christophe31 commented 12 years ago

Hi, I'm in a case where I need regular refreshs. I'd like to avoid request tiles each and all the page and refresh only data layers.

I asked a question on stackoverflow on way to do this but I don't see any in olwidget.

It may be a lack in the documentation. The only mentioned strategy is OpenLayers.Strategy.ClusterStrategy.

Hi,

I posted a response to the stack overflow question: http://stackoverflow.com/a/8779606/85461

Basically, this would be a lot of work, and probably not worth it for olwidget. You'd be better off using OpenLayers directly.
