Enhanced-Search-Widget-for-FlexViewer Part II

RobertScheitlin__GISP

All,

I am pleased to announce the next release of my eSearch Widget.

http://www.arcgis.com/home/item.html?id=5d4995ccdb99429185dfd8d8fb2a513e

Version 2.5.1.7 - 4/19/2012
* Added ability to search (flat/standalone/no geometry) tables.
* This time all Zooming uses the same scaling (popup, datagrid, widget results, zoom to all).
* Added Relates icon/button to datagrids so that you can click on it in the datagrid to
open relates choice dialog.
* Move all skins to a skins package for cleaner organization.
* Links that are not associated with a field now work.
* Ability to disable the relates tab in the fixed widget is now configurable.

Nice changes.

Robert,

Attached is the web method you asked for. Excuse the field names, they pertain to our database tables.

Thanks for all your help!

Hi Robert,
Just downloaded your update...am looking for the skins folder but can't find it in the eSearch folder.

Michele,

Strange I just checked the download and I find a skins folder under eSearch..?

MicheleDunham

Robert, this is in IE 8, still don't see the folder. I'll download Firefox and see what I get. I did copy the skins from the Dec download and put them in a folder. Now I get this error at compile...

Robert, here's an attached screenshot of what I see in the eSearch folder on GitHub. My colleague confirmed this is what he sees too.
Thanks again for your great work!

Michele,

OK, I forgot a command on git and that caused some files to not get pushed. Check now.

Despite upgrading to your newest version I am having a problem with one specific search. All other searches work, including that based on the Urban_Center field, but the second expression given below will not work. I have tried it using upper and without, with = as well as LIKE, and I have tried it both with % and without. I always get the following error: [RPC Fault faultstring="Unable to complete operation." faultcode="400" faultDetail="Unable to complete Query opeartion."]

The link to the layer within the service is http://egis.artsci.uc.edu/ArcGIS/rest/services/PRAGIS/MapServer/2
I have checked innumerable times that I spelled the attribute field name correctly, and I just don't know what else to do. Any help you can provide would be much appreciated.

<layer>
   <definitionexpression></definitionexpression>
   <enableexport>true</enableexport>
   <name>Urban Center</name>
   <url>http://egis.artsci.uc.edu/ArcGIS/rest/services/PRAGIS/MapServer/2</url>
   <expressions>
    <expression alias="Urban Center" textsearchlabel="Search by Urban Center [ Example: Yaxhom]:" >(Urban_Center) like ('%[value]%')</expression>
    <expression alias="Atlas Ranking" textsearchlabel="Search by Atlas site ranking:" userlist="1,2,3,4"> (Witschey_and_Brown_Ranking) = upper('%[value]%')</expression>
   </expressions>

Hi Robert,

Thanks for your latest Search Widget 2.5.1.7f. I like the new widget which can search on standalone table. I have a parcel standalone table and parcel boundary feature class. I created a relationship class between the table and feature class. I searched on the parcel table and clicked the Relate Table button to bring up the parcel feature class attribute table successfully. However, it seems to me that I cannot zoom to the related featue class. Does your widget support this? Any helps or suggestions would be greatly appreciated.

John-Paul,

Have you tried a simple query such as:

<expression alias="Atlas Ranking" textsearchlabel="Search by Atlas site ranking:" userlist="1,2,3,4">Witschey_and_Brown_Ranking = [value]</expression>

Are you also returning the field Witschey_and_Brown_Ranking field in your list of fields

Regards

Anthony

RobertScheitlin__GISP

John-Paul,

Anthony is spot on with his responce. Here is why:

When you use a userlist, you are specifying the EXACT values that are needed and therefore do not need a LIKE in the Query.
You are searching on a field that is numeric, so having single quotes in the SQL says that you are trying to search for text and this in incorrect for your field type.

RobertScheitlin__GISP

Lixin,

I currently do not have any plans to support a Stand Alone Table Relate to have support for zoom to features.

Thanks for your reply.

RobertScheitlin__GISP

All,

I thought I would try and give you a forecast of things to come for the eSearch. Here are things I am currently working on or have already completed:

Multi field Links. What this means is that you can specify a link much the same way you do a description in a popup. So links will now look like this:

http://mySite/gis/map/mrs_test.asp?mrspoint={Name}&lat={LAT}&long={LON}]]&gt

Ability to select and copy from the widgets results
Multi field expressions! I am diligently working on this to make it work and as configurable as possible. This is still one of my biggest challenges as each additional field need to have an additional text box or combo box added to the User Interface.
I have many more items on the enhancement list but will have to wait and see what makes the cut after the massive code changes that are involved in 1 and 3 are complete.

IMPORTANT be ready for it because this next version will require a lot of changes to your current SearchWidget.xml

CK1

I will wait and I�??m glad to check it out. 😄

Hi Robert,

Is it possible to have the tooltip for Link icon for Enhanced Search Widget 2.5.1.7f, as shown in the following?

<link includeinresults="false" field="TaxAccount" alias="Aerial Photo">
<linkprefix>http://map.brevardpropertyappraiser.com/Map2/default.aspx?taxacct=</linkprefix>
<linksuffix>&c=t</linksuffix>
<iconfield></iconfield>
<iconprefix></iconprefix>
<iconsuffix>assets/images/i_satellite.png</iconsuffix>
</link>

RobertScheitlin__GISP

Lixin,

For some reason I can't seem to grasp what you are requesting here. You want a tooltip added for the link icon?

LixinHuang

Lixin,

Yes. Just like the one in your Identify widget.

RobertScheitlin__GISP

Lixin,

Got it, that will make it into the next version.

LixinHuang

Robert,

Thanks for your quick reply. I am looking forward to your next release.

hi Robert,
some time ago i asked you for help in formating a date field in the esearch widget. below is what you provided. it works but i am getting odd results.
what is occuring is that the dates shown in the datagrid are 24 hrs older that the dates shown in arccatalog or sql+.
so i see 5/9/2012 8pm in the esearch datagrid and 5/10/2012 8pm in sql+.
i have tryed changing the 'useutc' tag to 'false' and removing it altogether but the displayed results are still the same.
do you have ideas about what could be happening? i have attached a screen shot as well.

here is the line from the esearch config.
<field name="DATE_COLLECTED" dateformat="MM/DD/YYYY L A" useutc="true" gridfield="true"/

Glen,

What version and service pack of ArcGIS Server are you running?

JaneCopeland

Robert,

When I run this widget from the Esri site the pop-up windows persist after I change navigation tools through the navigation toolbar. When I run it from my own site, without modification, I loose the pop-ups. Am I missing a setting someplace that would allow the pop-ups to persist?

Thanks.

Jane

RobertScheitlin__GISP

Jane,

I can not duplicate the behavior you are seeing even on a fresh clean install of the eSearch. When I have a popup visible and then switch navigation tools the popup remains.

glennhazelton

Glen,

What version and service pack of ArcGIS Server are you running?

Robert,
i am running Arcserver 10 with sp4 installed.

it is clear now that what is happening is that Flex is subtracting 5 hrs from the time stored in the DB.
the time in the DB is EST or EDT not GMT.
i have tryed a few tags that i found in the flex help (z=EST) or (zzz=GMT-00500)
but nothing seem to work make a difference.
i am seeing the same results with the Pop-up box as well.

Glenn,

Here is the code in my widget and all esri widgets as well that converts the date returned from REST (which is converted to utc before returned):

            private function msToDate(ms:Number, dateFormat:String, useUTC:Boolean):String
            {
                var date:Date = new Date(ms);
                if (date.milliseconds == 999) // workaround for REST bug
                    date.milliseconds++;
                if (useUTC)
                    date.minutes += date.timezoneOffset;
                
                if (dateFormat){
                    dateFormatter.formatString = dateFormat;
                    var result:String = dateFormatter.format(date);
                    if (result)
                        return result;
                    else
                        return dateFormatter.error;
                }else{
                    return date.toLocaleString();
                }
            }

glennhazelton

So Robert, i could use a bit more explaination--
does this code mean that if i have the tag useUTC='true' then i should be getting the time corrected to my timezone.?
how does it know what my timezone is? is it looking at the time on the webserver?
and
if i dont use the tag then i would get UTC time?
here is my config line.
it doesnt seem to matter if i have the useUTC in it or not. i see the same results regardless.
<field name="THE_DATE" dateformat="MM/DD/YYYY L A" useUTC="true" gridfield="true"/>

Robert,

Is there some setting in some other part of the viewer that keeps the mouse active on the map even after the navigation tool is used?

Jane

RobertScheitlin__GISP

Glenn,

does this code mean that if i have the tag useUTC='true' then i should be getting the time corrected to my timezone.?
Yes (that's the way it is suppose to work based on my understanding).

how does it know what my timezone is?
It (flash Player) gets it from the client machine

is it looking at the time on the webserver?
No the Client Machine

if i dont use the tag then i would get UTC time?
Yes (that's the way it is suppose to work based on my understanding).
