Selecting Features and Highlighting a Table

[GaryBarden]

Could someone point me in the direction of information of how to select a feature on a map and having the corrisponding record highlight on a table? I'm using ArcServer 9.3.

Thank you,

Gary Barden

have you seen this sample?

[GaryBarden]

I had not...is that version 9.3?

Here is an example of what you are wanting to do. If you have any questions after looking through the code, let us know.

the sample demonstrates functionality available at version 3.2 of our JavaScript API.  it uses a feature layer based on a 10.0 map service, but would work equally well with a 9.3 service.

(just as an fyi, if you want to know the version of ArcGIS Server which is hosting a service, just navigate from its REST URL to the associated services directory (see examples below).  in the upper righthand corner of the page, the version of ArcGIS Server will be listed.)

Thanks, these are great examples of what I want our app to do, but our develops are telling us it can't be done because they are using an older verion of the Java API and the Dojo library, but from the looks of it, these examples are a couple of years old, so we should be able to develop something like this.

[GaryBarden]

I just checked. The API is version 2.8 and the DOJO library is version 1.6. Any idea if this would prevent us from being able to develop this functionality?

[JohnGravois]

whats keeping them from migrating to the newest version of our API?

if you can't move to Dojo 1.7 and use a dgrid, you'd want to check out a sample like this.

[GaryBarden]

They say that migrating to the new API will require "a lot of work", related to upgrading servers and something about the web server must be on a separate machine....

I've never heard of such a thing!  I am still using ArcGIS server 9.3 (not even 9.3.1).  The only issues at all I've had with some of the newest dojo or Javascript API has to do with the fact we are still running a rather old version of IE as our default browser internally.  That has nothing at all to do with what we do or don't have on our servers.
