Embed Flex Viewer in Web Page

PurnaMehta — Fri, 06 Sep 2013 15:24:49 GMT

Hello,

I am starting to look at ways to embed flex viewer into my web site. The viewers are created/hosted on a third party server. I just want to be able to call them using URL's and launch them as a part of my web page. I am using a .Net application.

Can you please provide me with ways to go for it? Examples will be much appreciated.
How can I pass in the list of Parameters (parcel id, address parameters, coordinates etc)? As query strings?
Is there any event which captures and returns address details when clicked anywhere on the map?

Thanks for the help!

PM

The Flex Viewer supports a few URL parameters, see

Some people have customized their viewers to support more URL parameters. But this would require compiling the flexviewer (ar at least adding custom widgets) that you mention is hosted on a third-party server, so that might not work...

Is there any event which captures and returns address details when clicked anywhere on the map?

Yes, but it's part of the flex code. If you are asking about accessing it from your .net application, you would need to write something on the flex side to communicate that out to the .net parent. Again, if you don't have control of the flexviewer site, then this is not doable.
