Thanks for posting a detailed repro case. I'm in the process of trying to reproduce you're actual error... The first thing that jumped out at me is that you're re-creating a graphics layer on each geocode. Why not just create a graphics layer when the app is initialized and re-use that throughout the app? ... View more

No, but the good news is that this is pretty straightforward to implement. I would do the following: -save a copy of the extent -connect a button or link to a function that passes your extent to map.setExtent() ... View more

maxAllowableOffset isn't specific to feature layers, query and identify tasks can also use it. It's a best practice to use it and I'm pretty sure it'll stop this error from appearing. ... View more

Are you displaying the whole layer as a dynamic map service or a feature layer? Are you sure you need to send a 1.5MB geometry to the client? I would guess that you could generalize the feature and this error would go away. Plus, your app would be faster. Both the queryTask and the identifyTask support maxAllowableOffset. Here's a blog post I did on the details of how to calculate a suitable value for maxAllowableOffset:  http://blogs.esri.com/Dev/blogs/arcgisserver/archive/2011/06/13/Feature-layers-can-generalize-geometries-on-the-fly.aspx Once you have a value for maxOffset, set it on your query object or your identifyParameters object. ...

I'm not in sales so I'm not sure about a fee for a local government. My guess would be that you do have to pay but you should call this number for a definitive answer:  800-447-9778 The ID for createMap() comes from ArcGIS.com. When you create and save a webmap using the ArcGIS.com map viewer, ArcGIS.com creates an ID for your map. You can get the ID from the "My Content" section after clicking on one of your maps(it's in the URL). ... View more

Yes, this is possible. If you're building an app for commercial use then there's still a licensing fee, see:  http://www.esri.com/software/arcgis/web-mapping/pricing.html The data limitations you mentioned apply to two different things: -shapefiles you upload to ArcGIS.com are limited to 1000 features:  http://help.arcgis.com/en/arcgisonline/help/index.html#/Adding_features_from_a_file/010q00000060000000/ -each ArcGIS.com account gets 2GB of storage:  http://help.arcgis.com/en/arcgisonline/help/index.html#//010q0000003s000000 I recommend uploading some data and starting to play around with webmaps.

Hi Aaron, 1. IE8 will emulate IE7. IE9 uses IE9. I got this info from here:  http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/cc288325(v=vs.85).aspx 2. Not sure. 3. No known issues, AFAIK 4.
