The Dojo framework (and thus the JS API) picks up the locale from the browser settings.  You can override the browser locale in the dojoConfig settings.  Please note: this setting is only read and used when the application first loads. dojo.config (dojo/_base/config) — The Dojo Toolkit - Reference Guide Internationalization (i18n) — The Dojo Toolkit - Reference Guide ...

Bill, I guess I'm fortunate as I almost always work within the dojo/layout framework for my UIs. The dojo/layout/* containers provide events that inform me when a child pane is selected and it's within these events that I place my map creation code. ... View more

Edward, returnDistinctValues is a property on the JS API Query object, not a parameter of the url of the service, so please don't include it when creating the Query instance. The services you mention are secure services so make sure you include a reference to esri/IdentityManager so the appropriate credentials are obtained and used by the JS API before you make the request. It would help if you shared some of the JS code so we can figure out what is going on. John ... View more

If you'd like the full CSS3 color names, just require the "dojo/colors" modules and they'll be added to the Color.named list.  Something kinda like this: require(["dojo/_base/Color","dojo/colors"],function(Color,colors){   console.log(Color.named);   var orangeClr = new Color(Color.named.orange);   console.log(orangeClr); }); dojo.colors — The Dojo Toolkit - Reference Guide ...

Alana,     performing an Identify operation on many layers can be a costly operation and not something we'd generally recommend, you might want to take a step back and figure out if there's a better way to do what you need.  Regardless, here's a different way to aggregate many Identify calls using AMD style coding, this is NOT the exact code, just a guideline.  Also, you might have to modify 'showIDResults' as the response structure might be different. // What about sublayer ids?  Each layer might have different sublayer ids... idParams.width = map.width; idParams.height = map.height; idParams.geometry = evt.mapPoint; idParams.mapExtent = map.extent; // arrayUtils = require("dojo/_base/array") var executeDeferreds = arrayUtils.map(layers, function(layer) {   // assumes each layer supports IdentifyTask   var identifyTask = new IdentifyTask(layer.url);      return identifyTask.execute(idParams); }); // all = require("dojo/promise/all") all(executeDeferreds).then(showIDResults); ...
