Connection to ArcGIS server basemaps not working.

Hi,

Simple question:

I'm using this code in my flex viewer config file:

<layer label="Streets" type="tiled" visible="true" icon="assets/images/basemap_Streets.gif"
url="http://server.arcgisonline.com/ArcGIS/rest/services/World_Street_Map/MapServer"/>

But the streets map in the application is not showing. My own layers (4 of them) do show.

Any suggestions?
Thanks!

Benjamin,

Not the right forum for this Flex Viewer Question.

You have an issue with no white space in your tag.

<layerlabel="Streets"type="tiled"visible="true"icon="assets/images/basemap_Streets.gif"
url="http://server.arcgisonline.com/ArcGIS/rest/services/World_Street_Map/MapServer"/>

Should be:

<layer label="Streets" type="tiled" visible="true" icon="assets/images/basemap_Streets.gif"
url="http://server.arcgisonline.com/ArcGIS/rest/services/World_Street_Map/MapServer"/>

Because this is a tiled layer it can not be reprojected to your data's wkid so if you are not adding this as a basemap and don't have it first then it will not work.

I apologize,
This is the ArcGIS API for Flex - where I thought I could post this question.
