Robert,
We have upgraded our services from 9.3.1 to 10.1 and I have added the 10.1 service to the eSearch widget. Everything seems to work except for a print service, basically be have Getaways as shape files in the service that our clients can search for to get a specific pre-made pdf map. The feature for our staging areas work fine, but the ones for our feeders do not work, however the 9.3.1 service works correctly with the same code. The code is as follows:
9.3.1 code:

Slade,

  It looks like you have a 1009 error using either services... I would check the spelling (and CaSe) of the field names. Also in diagnosing ths issue it would be benifical to you to attempt the same exact query using the where clause and out fields directly from your Rest Service Directory page.

where in the instructions is an example of using a where clause to pull directly from the rest services directory?

   Just go to your servers API Reference url:

http://YourServerAddress/arcgis/sdk/index.html?catalog.html
and choose query as the topic from the table of contents.

In the new version, I see that the tooltip for the relate icon in the eSearch results is changed to the relate label in the XML, but it does not seem to be applying to the tab in the grid name for me. That still seems to be using the relateresulttab element in the FixedDG XML. This is the XML for each of my 2 layers I'm using relates for, along with the related FixedDG XML. When I run a search on either of these layers, the tab is labeled "Related Data." I'm not sure if this is a bug, if the XML in the FixedDG XML is set to override the regular XML, if I'm making another configuration error, or if I misunderstood the update.

Nick,

The relates Results tab will us the relateresulttab tag from the datagrid xml until you choose the relate. This is the intended behavior as you only have on relate per layer but others like my preview site has MULTIPLE relates assigned to one layer and thus the tabs label can not be changed until I know which relate you have chosen.

When you say "when you choose the relate," how are you determining when the relate is chosen? Even after I click the relate icon and view the data in the datagrid, the tab label does not change. Would it be possible to detect whether there was only one relate and set it to the only label present?
