Unable to draw a polyline on map

ShaningYu

Borrowed someone script that could draw a polyline on map (defined here: var polyline) in Portand, WA. I added var polyline2 with the values, but this line was not drawing. I am new in JS GIS. Please help if you can share your experience. Thanks in advance.

Thank you for your help. You are completely correct. shaningesri made another thread on the topic earlier:

http://forums.arcgis.com/threads/99906-Add-graphic-not-successufl

It's always been a coordinates issue but I have been unsuccessful in communicating that to shaningesri.

Jon: Thanks for your help. The pro. got solved after using correct LAT/LON values.

Are you sure those are the correct coordinates for the line? If you change the first coordinate, you'll see the line off the coast of Africa.

var polylineJson2 = { "paths":[[[2013940.01178484457,1736610.08635829584],...

Also, can you get in the habit of putting your code within the CODE tags? It makes it much easier to read.
