Regular search widget default to text search

Anonymous User

Original User: alnesbit

Hello,

In the ESRI search widget 2.1 or 2.2, is there anyway to tell it to default to a text search? Most users would not have a clue what the graphic symbols are for or that they should click the little icon to change to a text search. I would think a text search would be the most used kind of search in general.

Thanks,

Andrea,

Not until you start using the source code then you can do this

<viewer:BaseWidget xmlns:esri="http://www.esri.com/2008/ags"
                   xmlns:fx="http://ns.adobe.com/mxml/2009"
                   xmlns:s="library://ns.adobe.com/flex/spark"
                   xmlns:mx="library://ns.adobe.com/flex/mx"
                   xmlns:Search="widgets.Search.*"
                   xmlns:viewer="com.esri.viewer.*"
                   x="600" y="300"
                   widgetConfigLoaded="init()" currentState="textInput">

i have a quick question,
the search field for the Search Widget finds matches in the parcel data that are integer based. My data has a string i need it to search, when i switch the field to look in this field it doesn't work but when i change it to a field that is an integer type then it does.
how do i switch it so that it works with string type fields as well?

Paolo,

Post Your SearchWidget.xml.

here you go:

<?xml version="1.0" ?>
<configuration>
    <layers>
        <layer>
            <name>Parcels</name>
            <url>http://ptovar-pc/ArcGISServer/rest/services/TEST/Parcels/FeatureServer/0</url&gt;
            <expression>AssessorNum_diss = '[value]'</expression>
            <textsearchlabel>Search by Parcel ID  [ Example: L18100149000 ]:</textsearchlabel>
            <titlefield>AssessorNum_diss</titlefield>
            <linkfield></linkfield>
            <fields all = "true">
                <field name="AssessorNum_diss"/>
            </fields>
        </layer>
    </layers>
    <zoomscale>5000</zoomscale>
    <info>widgets/InfoTemplates/InfoPopupWidget.swf</info>
</configuration>

thank you

Paolo,

SO this here is a string sql expression:

<expression>AssessorNum_diss = '[value]'</expression>

This would be an numeric expression:

<expression>AssessorNum_diss = [value]</expression>

Thanks for the quick response.

My original code had the single quotes thus it should have worked. Wait i understand what is going.
I was searching for a part of the string and it gave me the attached error. But when i put in the complete and exact text it works. I tried using this

<expression>AssessorNum_diss = '%[value]%'</expression>

and this

<expression>AssessorNum_diss = '*[value]*'</expression>

and it doesn't seem to do a partial search match return.
This this simple to fix?

Thanks for your help

Paolo,

Wild cards can not be used in the expression without the like operator

<expression>AssessorNum_diss LIKE '%[value]%'</expression>

If you also want the query to be non case sensitive then use:

<expression>Upper(AssessorNum_diss) LIKE Upper('%[value]%')</expression>

Thank you So Much,
I've learned a valuable lesson that the <expression> block is the same as the expression in ArcGIS. I thought I was working with a Flex expression.

Cheers!

Robert,

Yes, you're right. That does work. However, the search box still shows the little underline under the graphic search so it's confusing. Is there a way in the code to tell it to also put the underline under the text search instead of the graphic search?

Thanks. New to the coding part of it,

Andrea,

Sure, just add this to the bottom of the init function:

wTemplate.selectedTitlebarButtonIndex = 1;

Robert,

Thanks! For future readers - you have to actually add it after the init function AND after the 6 lines of wTemplate code. Works great though.

Thanks,
