>>You need to use use

<script src="http://js.arcgis.com/3.6/"></script>

Second one is very old api version Always use latest API version

>> You can use latest Dojo version with ESRI JSAPI & what the reason you want to use Dojo 1.9 ?

Please let us know

As sunilpalkar asked, is there a specific reason you need to use Dojo 1.9 over 1.8?

I am aware of many mobile enhancements in the new Dojo version but unless there is a specific reason that you need Dojo 1.9, you should be able to use the Esri JSAPI with no problem.

i want to use latest dojo 1.9

I actually want o use DOJO 1.7

I am confused...

Is there a specific technical reason that makes Dojo 1.8 unattractive for use? You haven't posted any technical details.

If you need to use 1.7, you could probably use an older version of the Esri JSAPI that uses Dojo 1.7
