Problem setting visibility of layers in a MapServe

GeorgePeters — Mon, 19 Aug 2013 19:01:57 GMT

I am trying to set the visibility of layers from a MapService based upon whether they contain the phrase "lidar" in the name field. Here is the problem code, first. Also, I have some code that works, but can't seem to make it work in the first. The working code is second:

Any help would be appreciated.
