I want to be able to turn on and off the labels to a layer. I currently have a Parcels layer that is coming in as a feature layer and a label layer (msd with only the labels turned on) coming in as a dynamic layer. from my preliminary research, it seems that I can not get the dynamic layer to be "above" the feature layer. Is that correct?
I also could not find a good example on how to toggle labels for feature layers. Any suggestions? What are my options? I have searched the forums but there is little on labels. I can't be the only one who wants labels on their maps.
You're correct in that your dynamic service cannot be displayed on top of your feature layer. Feature layers (and graphics layers) always display on top of dynamic and tiled map services.
I can suggest a couple of approaches for showing labels: -continue to use your dynamic map layer for labels and use a fully or semi-transparent fill on your parcel boundaries feature layer -continue to use your dynamic map layer for labels and set one up for your parcel boundaries as well then create a feature layer with SELECTION mode for interaction with features -generate a label points layer, create a feature layer from it and symbolize with a text symbol (scale dependencies would be important here, there might be performance issues with lots of labels)
