Image and Links in Pop-ups Help

EmilyLaMunyon — Tue, 17 May 2011 15:49:03 GMT

Hello,

I am interested in having an image and/or link appear in my pop-ups in Flexviewer 2.3. I have been successful getting the pop-ups to work, just not with an image or hyperlink. I know I am missing something simple, but does anyone have any insight? Thanks!

PopUp_weeds.xml
?xml version="1.0" ?>
<configuration>
    <title>{name:}</title>
    <fields>
        <field name="Name" alias="Name"
        visible="true"/>
    </fields>
<medias>
<media type="image" imagesource="{http://website/flexviewer_weeds/weed_pics/{Name}.jpg}" imagelink="{http://website/flexviewer_weeds/weed_pics/oxeye_daisy.jpg}"/>
</medias>
    <showattachments>true</showattachments>
</configuration>


config.xml<layer label="Weeds" type="dynamic" visible="true" alpha="1"
                   url="http://www.gis.slco.org/wwwrest/services/public/Weeds/MapServer">
       <sublayer id="31" popupconfig="popups/PopUp_weeds.xml"/>
       </layer>

try removing extra curly braces in medias tag:

<medias>
  <media  type="image"  imagesource="http://website/flexviewer_weeds/weed_pics/{Name}.jpg"  imagelink="http://website/flexviewer_weeds/weed_pics/oxeye_daisy.jpg"/>
</medias>

also if you want to display name:<Name> in the title tag then title tag should be:

<title>name:{Name}</title>

Thanks for the help, that seemed to do the trick, however, my images are blank using the {Name}.jpg option. This may be obvious, but do the image names need to exactly match those of the REST service name?

Thanks!

Basically using field name "Name" in your case in curly braces {Name} , substitutes the value of the Name field.

Could you use tool like fiddler/firebug to capture HTTP response and pos it here?

Thanks, I finally got it to work! One thing I am noticing is that the image does not fill the entire pop-up. Is there a way to specify the specs of the pop-up?

I appreciate your help!

Using just the config wont be enough.You will have to work with source code and modify PopupRenderer skin.

Re: Image and Links in Pop-ups Help

EmilyLaMunyon — Tue, 17 May 2011 20:07:24 GMT

Can I achieve this without the use of Flash Builder or do I need it to chnage the skin?

Re: Image and Links in Pop-ups Help

MehulChoksey — Tue, 17 May 2011 20:09:12 GMT

You will have to modify the popup renderer skin and compile the source either using Flash Builder or by using Flex SDK 4.X

Is it possible to create link to a url using a field that has a unique url for each feature without displaying the url? using Pop-ups

Is it possible to create link to a url using a field that has a unique url for each feature without displaying the url? using Pop-ups

Could you explain bit more? may be with example...

Re: Image and Links in Pop-ups Help

I have a GIS layer that stores a link to inspection records (in a web-based document management system) for each feature. The URL is stored in a field called doc_url and is specific to that feature. The link provides records specific to that feature. So I'm looking for a way to hyperlink to the documents using the pop-up tool. It would look similar to below...

Link to Site Records and the url for each specific feature is = {doc_url} but the actual url is not displayed.

You might want to use description tag as follows:

<description>
          <![CDATA[<a href='{doc_url}'><u>Link to Site Records</u></a> ]]>

Could you try adding extra space before url?

 alpha="1.0" url="

 alpha="1.0" url="

Same Error.

Also, when I add the sublayer ID tag the features are not displayed. Looks different in operational layer list.

This Fault code: Client.CouldNotDecode is due to malformed Config.
Could you post your entire main config?

Not sure if your response was truncated by forum?
following tags are missing at the end of the config.

Yes, truncated sorry?

Does a Sublayer need to be a particular type of map service? It looks like most of the ESRI samples are feature services.

Fixed the issue by creating a new Service that is mxd based not msd?
