Measurement Widget clear Result and Query trouble

Question

So I've been working on this web map for a couple of weeks now trying to get everything in. I Have basic knowledge of JavaScript but when I get stuck I do get stuck.

What I'm trying to accomplish is to clear the results once I have used the measuring tool on the map. I found out another useful post on using the destroy method for the widget but I couldnt find a working clearResult(); method for it. You can see my frustration in my code. Function is built, button points to it, but then it says that the function is not defined:| (Firebug debugging)

Here is my code ( http://jsfiddle.net/n3LwT/1/ ) and here is the destroy forum post ( http://forums.arcgis.com/threads/42208-toggle-measurement-dijit-(startup-amp-destroy) )

As for the query. Im trying to get the {capREAL} field to be queried and for the user to input the amount inside a search box but I am lost on how to make it work. (In JSFiddle you need to scroll down the left header content pane in order to see the search box).

Thank you in advance.

I've tried to make it work with the find and findTask but I just dont know how to get the results inside the left side content pane.

I think both query/find would work as long as I would be able to point the results in the right location. I just dont know how to do that.

Here is the updated JSFiddle: http://jsfiddle.net/n3LwT/4/

Mircea,

add this code to your app:           on(dojo.byId("clearAll"), "click", clearmeas);
            function clearmeas(){
                measurement.clearResult();
            }

this will clear your measurement.

Will work on the query and let you know.

Thanks.
