Question

How to get existing map graphics selection along with its attribute i.e layername,objectid ...

thanks tom for your response
the selection is not happening through mouse.
the problem is the map graphics are nothing but query results, which is a result of query fired or tracing operation performed.

var lastSelectedGraphic;

function init() {
 /**
 ** Do your init work here...
 **/
 map.graphics.enableMouseEvents();
 dojo.connect(map.graphics, "onClick", function(evt) {
  lastSelectedGraphic = evt.graphic;
  // You can do more work with the graphic here, but it is also stored for access anytime time later.
 });
}

init();

From there you can get what you need, I think.
