Select Feature by ID

davidrenz

i am trying to select a feature on a featureLayer by the IDNUM.  it looks like the selection is happening, but the selection is not showing up on the map. can anyone tell me what might be going on here?

thanks

            map = new esri.Map("map", { extent:iniExtent,logo: false});
            map.enableScrollWheelZoom();

                var project = m_constructionProjectDates;

                if (project.StreetIDNUM.length > 0) {
                    
                    var id = project.StreetIDNUM;
                    var query = new esri.tasks.Query();
                    query.where = "IDNUM = " + id;
                    featureLayer.selectFeatures(query, esri.layers.FeatureLayer.SELECTION_NEW);  
                }
            }
        }
       
        function selectionComplete()
        {
            console.log("This one is done");
        }

looks like a plain old QueryTask will work for what i need.
i probably don't need the FeatureLayer in this scenario.

thanks!
