Adding Shape file data in ArcGIS viewer for flex 2.2

ShingayiJoyah — Wed, 12 Jan 2011 14:13:54 GMT

So on this web application I would like to present physical addresses for all the parcels and zones or zip codes. all my data is in shape file formate and in Geographical coordinate system. so how do I go about it????

I managed to add four layers for my study area in Blantyre (Malawi, Africa), in my Config.xml, which are showing in my LayerList Widget but I can�??t see them in my map? Can you look at my Config file and tell me where I�??m going wrong????

I think my main problem is how to use the URL???? do I need to upload my data on ArcGIServer or its also possible to link my data from my PC...???

Here is my Config file so far...

<?xml version="1.0" ?>

FlexViewer can't natively load shapefile data, but someone made a widget that might help.
