Identify Widg 3.0 Shows Link URL in popup, Not ID results link icon

MattBorden — Thu, 16 Aug 2012 18:22:50 GMT

Using:
Identify Widget 3.0
Internet Explorer 9
Windows 7
FlexViewer 3.0
Apache/Tomcat

Problem:
After migrating from Identify Widget 2.4 to 3.0,
the Link Icon won't appear next to the Identify window field results, the popup URL link does appear (see attached word doc graphic)

Things I've tried:

tested in Chrome and Firefox browsers: problem persists in those browsers as well

Cleared the REST services CACHE

tried using <fields all="false" > AND <fields all="true" >

For complete code: see attached txt files
Sample Code:
    <layers onlythese="true">
      <layer>

        <name>Parcel</name>

        <fields all="false" >
          <field name="PARCEL" />
          <field name="parcel_id" alias="ID" />
          <field name="prop_locat" alias="Address" />
          <field name="parcel_acr" alias="Acreage" />
          <field name="own_name" alias="Owner" />
          <field name="own_addr" alias="Owner Address" />
        </fields>

        <links>
<link includeinresults="false" field="PARCEL" alias="More Parcel Info Click Here" tooltip="More Parcel Info Click Here" >

                <linkprefix> http://gis.slco.org/ServLookup/index.htm?lu=PDS&parcel= </linkprefix>
                <linksuffix></linksuffix>

                <iconfield></iconfield>
    <iconprefix></iconprefix>
    <iconsuffix></iconsuffix>

</link>
        </links>

<zoomscale>15000</zoomscale>
            <forcescale>true</forcescale>

      </layer>
</layers>

Matt,

Your issue is that you are telling it not to include that in the results.

<link includeinresults="false"

Should be:

<link includeinresults="true"

Don't forget to click the Mark as answer check on this post and to click the top arrow (promote).
Follow the steps as shown in the below graphic:

Thanks for the feedback
I did switch the include link tag to true as follows
<link includeinresults="true"

The link field itself now appears in the ID field results window,
but the link icon which the user clicks to open the web resource
is still not displaying (see attached graphic)

Any thoughts, Thanks Matt

Matt,

Hmm... What happens if you manually specify a icon in the link?

    <layer>         <name>Parcel</name>         <fields all="false" >           <field name="PARCEL"  />           <field name="parcel_id" alias="ID" />           <field name="prop_locat" alias="Address" />           <field name="parcel_acr" alias="Acreage" />               <field name="own_name" alias="Owner" />           <field name="own_addr" alias="Owner Address" />          </fields>             <links>         <link includeinresults="false" field="PARCEL" alias="More Parcel Info Click Here" tooltip="More Parcel Info Click Here" >         <linkprefix> http://gis.slco.org/ServLookup/index.htm?lu=PDS&parcel= </linkprefix>                             <linksuffix></linksuffix>             <iconfield></iconfield>         <iconprefix></iconprefix>         <iconsuffix>assets/images/i_lego.png</iconsuffix>         </link>     </links>     <zoomscale>15000</zoomscale>     <forcescale>true</forcescale>     </layer>

Matt,

The need to specify the link icon will be fixed in the next version.
