Update - I tried the same code, but on my personal domain, and it works fine - which seems to point at some sort issue internal issue.  But, 😄 it has enabled me to get permission to "test" IE8 on my PC (8 is as far as we can go until we move off XP) - as not only do I have this issue, but I had another scripting issue that just failed on IE7. I feel your pain, just happy we finally got off ie6! ... View more

I did a little more testing.  It appears that dojo.require("esri.layers.KMLLayer"); is responsible for pulling in all the chart stuff.  I too it out as I'm not currently using KMLLayers. Is this a bug? Rex Bradford Direct Relief International no its not a bug.  If it is required for KML to work, it is required.  same with OSM. ... View more

That makes sense, and what I assumed, but I was surprised for instance to see all of the charting stuff pulled in, when not called for explicitly.  Does Dialog pull these in too, or something else? I have no idea why, but those are all pulled in when you dojo.require("esri.layers.osm"); an must be an embedded component of OpenStreetMap ... View more

Gladly. Please post back and let us know what you find. Just wanted to report back i confirmed in your example it is being properly id'd, and in every test case (except my app) it behaves properly.  Baffling, .. ... View more

you are calling them, just indirectly.  For example you call dojo.require(dijit.Dialog) which has code if(!dojo._hasResource["dijit.Dialog"]){     dojo._hasResource["dijit.Dialog"]=true; dojo.provide("dijit.Dialog"); dojo.require("dojo.dnd.move"); dojo.require("dojo.dnd.TimedMoveable"); dojo.require("dojo.fx"); dojo.require("dojo.window"); dojo.require("dijit._Widget"); dojo.require("dijit._Templated"); dojo.require("dijit._CssStateMixin"); dojo.require("dijit.form._FormMixin"); dojo.require("dijit._DialogMixin"); dojo.require("dijit.DialogUnderlay"); dojo.require("dijit.layout.ContentPane"); dojo.requireLocalization("dijit","common",null,"ROOT,ar,ca,cs,da,de,el,es,fi,fr,he,hu,it,ja,kk,ko,nb,nl,pl,pt,pt-pt,ro,ru,sk,sl,sv,th,tr,zh,zh-tw"); dojo.require("dijit.TooltipDialog"); dojo.declare("dijit._DialogBase",[dijit._Templated,dijit.form._FormMixin,dijit._DialogMixin,dijit._CssStateMixin],{    so as you can see alot of the requires are being loaded by why you required. ...

Hi When a user first uses a page of mine, which uses API 2.5, it hangs when initially loading, before it gets as far as the CSS, so all the items are showing unstyled.  Event logs show Hanging application iexplore.exe, version 7.0.6000.17103, hang module hungapp, version 0.0.0.0, hang address 0x00000000. Killing iexplorer and starting again and it all works fine. Deleting temp internet files causes this to happen a second time.  I'm guessing it is some conflict with the downloading of all the API code at once. Any ideas? ACM I havent seen this, but i do have problems with ie7 loading this badly out of order (like before dojo is loaded) .  DO you ahve a public link or html sample? ... View more

Looking forward to see what you come up with. This service has several layers with coded value domains:  http://sampleserver5.arcgisonline.com/ArcGIS/rest/services/Energy/Geology/MapServer We query each layer for the layer description.  We then pass the resulting featureset through a function to replace names with aliases, format numbers, and replace domains with their values Function to do formatting/aliases/domains org.mymanatee.common.util.getAliasDomainFormat=function(layerdesc, fieldName, field_val){            dojo.forEach(layerdesc.fields, dojo.hitch(this, function(ldf){                             if(ldf.name==fieldName){                                 //replace with aliases                                fieldName = ldf.alias;                              //  alert(ldf.name+" : "+ldf.type);                               if(ldf.type=="esriFieldTypeDate"){                                //    alert(ldf.type);                                field_val=   dojo.date.locale.format(new Date(field_val), {datePattern: "MM/dd/yyyy"});                              //  alert(field_val);                               }                               if(ldf.type=="esriFieldTypeDouble"){                                //    alert(ldf.type);                                field_val=   dojo.number.format(field_val,{places: 2 });                              //  alert(field_val);                               }                               if(ldf.domain){                                   dojo.forEach(ldf.domain.codedValues, dojo.hitch(this, function(domain){                                       if(field_val==domain.code){                                         field_val=domain.name;                                       }                                   }));                               }                             }                         }));                         return [fieldName,field_val]; } function to get the layer description (by querying url with the ?f=json parameter) - ignore the replaces they are a cross-domain hack org.mymanatee.common.util.getLayerDesc=function(url){     var desc;                                     var layerurl= ""+url.replace("http://home.intranet","")+"/?f=json";                                 layerurl= ""+layerurl.replace("http://www.mymanatee.org","");                                 var params = {                  url: layerurl,                  handleAs: "json",                  sync: true              };                var deferred =dojo.xhrGet(params);                     desc= deferred.results[0];     return desc; } ...

ok that is odd, i need to figure out why my code is not adding the id then.  thank you for double checking. ... View more

What are you trying to do? We would normally recommend that you stick to using public API functions to interact with your layers. What is the API missing? I am using the public api, its for my own print function.  At 2.2, when you added a dynamic layer, it creates <div id="map_layername"><img id="map_layername_randomnumber">/<img></div> which is true at 2.5 as well, unless the service only has annotation, in which case, for some reason, the div does not get an id, only the img does. For now i am just querying for the layers that only have annotation (i have to hardcode the names) and manually id'ing the divs.  Just wondering why the change. ... View more

Jeff, I don't agree with you since it zooms more than current every time when it is called by user. Well since by default a point does not have an extent, you have to assume one.  If you want to stay at the current, you are not zooming, you are panning, in which case just call map.centerAt(pt). ... View more

Is this still the method to zoom to a point using the ESRI Javascript API? var PointExtent = new esri.geometry.Extent(); PointExtent.xmin = selectedAddress.geometry.x - .001; PointExtent.ymin = selectedAddress.geometry.y - .001; PointExtent.xmax = selectedAddress.geometry.x + .001; PointExtent.ymax = selectedAddress.geometry.y + .001; map.setExtent(PointExtent); Or, is there a new method? Thanks in advance, M Since its a point, I prefer map.centerAndZoom(selectedAddress.geometry,19); // 19 or whatever zoom scale you prefer. ... View more

You can use a geometry service's labelPoints method. Or you could use a custom GP service. We don't have a way to do this client side. Bummer.  feature request? a getCenter ({inside:true}) method on geometry would be very very useful. ... View more
