Shortlist Marker Icons Not Showing on Internal Hosted Site

TomBleicher — Thu, 12 Jun 2014 20:18:50 GMT

Hello folks. I'm developing a custom shortlist for testing and the marker icons are loading but showing up as broken. I have not modified any code regarding the markers in js, css or html. My default Browser is IE10, and the scripts all point to the correct file location on the server. I'm wondering if it's a js issue, or a configuration issue with the host. Everything else works, but the markers. They're in the right location, just not loading the .png. Pleas see the attachment. Disregard the 3 tiles that are broken, I haven't finished those yet. Any help, advise or suggestions are much appreciated!

Can't wait to talk to some of you folks at the UC in SD! Story maps have so much potential!

Regards,
Tom B.

Hi,

Looking forward to talking to authors at the UC too. There will be a story maps booth at the Esri Showcase area of the exhibition at the UC. There are also several story maps sessions and demos.

Those marker symbols should be working: they are part of the shortlist download. I suspect something else is preventing your layers from drawing correctly.

I'm wondering if it's not a restriction on our internal server. I'm testing from within. I just don't know why the markers, of all things, are giving me issues....

I may need to try this externally!

I had a look at your web map:

http://www.arcgis.com/home/webmap/viewer.html?webmap=98cb3b8fdca64f4786a0821dac137a86

and your Shortlist isn't working because the Number field for the points of interest isn't populated: it is 0 for each feature. They need to be numbered 1 thru XX because that is the number used in the SHortlist for each place. If that value is 0 for each feature it's not going to work. That is why the marker symbols are not drawing on the map.

Tried, and it works great! Going to update the colors in the code and play around with it! Thanks for the information again!
