Hi,
I was wondering if Map Suite 3.0 supported the OGC WFS (Web Feature Service) specification?
Thanks!

Clint,
We don’t support it for now. We will add it later.
As our Web Edition uses OpenLayers internally and OpenLayers supports WFS, you can now still connect to WFS by using OpenLayers API in Map Suite. But that means all the codes dealing with WFS are in client part and you should be very familiar with OpenLayers.
Here is the OpenLayers 2.7 Documentation as well as a piece of docs showing how to use OpenLayers’ API in Map Suite Web Edition.
In WebEdition, All the openlayers’ objects are added to the map object, we can use OpenLayers’ class via map.
Example: Add a new WmsLayer on the map using javascript.
var OnMapCreated = function(map){
var wmsLayer = new OpenLayers.Layer.WMS( "OpenLayers WMS", "labs.metacarta.com/wms/vmap0", {layers: 'basic'});
map.addLayer(wmsLayer);
}
Ben.
