Find an Address Widget

NaveenMandava — Mon, 31 Jan 2011 19:20:14 GMT

Hello Experts,

I'm new to Flash dev and Im currently working on Find an Address widget.
I have downloaded the code and wanted to tweak the widget to find the results from one of OUR layer(right now it is finding the results from usa_streets). How is this possible. Where I have to change to make this work.

Thanks,
Naveen Mandava.

You can use a different locator service by changing the url in the locate widget's config. See the "locator" doc at:

Paddock,

Thanks for the reply.

I think you didnt understand my question. If I geocode an address, right now it is zooming to the point but my requiremnet is to find the providers at that point from one of our layer.

Thanks,

You could use the QueryTask to query your layer:
