Editing data in a SP list

Question

I do not see that the tools allow for editing data on the map directly, that comes from a Sharepoint List.  Please correct me if I am wrong but I only see the edit tools available if feature layers are involved on the map.  To edit the item in a sharepoint list you have to go through the edit item form, and if that is the only way, then is there a way to add other reference layers to the map presented there?
Thanks in advance,
J

Just an FYI, To change from the default map to the Open Street Map Base map I changed this line: [PHP] [/PHP] to this: [PHP] [/PHP] Useful?

Hi J, Request for next version: get editing of the sharepoint list into the map itself.

Please submit your enhancement request here: ArcGIS Ideas site
  Just noticed, can I change the scale of the map window by default? I see the extent coords, but that doesnt really make sense as it zooms to the location of the feature for each one.  Scale or zoom level would be a better value here. Is there a also a maximum scale set to zoom into, or is that determined by the first basemap layer as in the other APIs?

Not 100% sure what you're asking for here. Are you asking for the ability to specify a specific map scale to zoom into in the Map Web Part? The map's zoom scales are determined by the basemap's cached tile levels. So this "is determined by the first basemap layer" is true.

Hope this helps,
