Any examples of esri.dijit.Attribution?

Question

Title says it all, I can't seem to find any examples of the Attribute Widget - I'm sure I saw one when it was new in 3.1

Cheers

Thanks - although on the sample given I can't see any reference - there isn't a "require" part.  from the API notes I thought you'd need a "dojo.require("esri.dijit.Attribution");" then create it with var attribution = new esri.dijit.Attribution({  map: map
}, "attributionDiv");

And then, have a div somewhere with that ID.

So, even more confused now.

Also, is it clever enough, if two layers have the same attribution not to repeat itself?

Cheers

Nope the Attribution Widget - added at 3.1

Intresting .. didn't realize there was such a dijit. Usually I set my map.attribution: false because my current client is not interested in seeing this information for an internal web editing tool. But I see it's use now.  Aside from map.attribution property, there is also an attribution property for the layers so you can control the layers that will actually show attribution .. the default is true (I believe). If you find an example let me know...

Yes, it's used in most of our samples as it is on by default. Take a look at the simple create a map sample:  http://developers.arcgis.com/en/javascript/samples/map_simple/

The attribution widget is in the lower-right next to the esri logo.
