Widget to zoom to State and County

BarbaraPatterson — Wed, 24 Nov 2010 14:28:21 GMT

I'm wondering if anyone has created a widget that allows a user select State and County from two comboboxes and then zoom to the result. I did find code that Robert Scheitlin posted but it was for flex api 1.3.

Thanks,

Barb Patterson

Barb,

Doubt that I will have time today but can you post the link to my 1.3 code. I have been coding and posting for years now and don't remember all the code I put out there.

Barb,

This is not precisely what you are looking for, but my query-based bookmark widget may give you a good start:
http://www.arcgis.com/home/item.html?id=4643fd05f8c34264aef6f4e1ed37b406

You configure this widget with the url of a Map Service to query, the name of an attribute to query, and a list of values that make up the bookmarks. I used to to zoom to any town in my state by providing a list of town names as the list of values, and querying a Map Service that is based on a political bounds feature layer.
