It looks like it's working ok in fiddler: Edit fiddle - JSFiddle Sometimes, there's JavaScript that will cause a breakout. There may be a workaround using "onbeforeunload": Edit fiddle - JSFiddle ...or, if you can use HTML5, with sandboxing: Play safely in sandboxed IFrames - HTML5 Rocks ... View more

Robert, Everyone has provided great advice and suggestions for you thus far. I'm going to play devil's advocate, though... the cost of your labor will most likely be well beyond any software costs to the company at the desktop level. You say it's a small petroleum company and budget may be a concern - don't let that stop you from making a recommendation if you really feel having more capable tools will allow you to do your work more efficiently, and perhaps, may even be required if you stick with the Esri ecosystem, depending on your project requirements. You should weigh the pros and cons of needing to go back and ask for more capable software should you need it - after you've already gone through the initial scoping process since they believe you know everything about the software - it's ok to tactfully explain this is not the case. You can live and breathe GIS for a decade and still find surprises every day. Having said that, unless you need some of the extensions, which it doesn't sound like you do, the Standard level should work well. If you find it doesn't, there are generally open-source alternatives. Just make sure you keep a record of your scopes/specs in case, 6 months from now, it creeps into an area that needs extensions, or an advanced license (when the client is asking why you are charging them more money for software, it'll come in handy). ...

You may not need to do anything in this file, but just so you are aware (they don't make it obvious - I had to find the path using Fiddler when I first saw the example), there is an extra file than what you see in the sample: http://developers.arcgis.com/javascript/samples/layers_point_clustering//extras/ClusterLayer.js This is the ClusterLayer that is pulled in by: "extras/ClusterLayer", ...at the top of the requires. The dojoConfig tells the app where to look for this module. Just wanted you to be aware there were more user-created files than what is readily shown in the sample! As far as updating the markers - as Tracy mentioned, this should be straight-forward. I went ahead and updated it to something arbitrary in the sandbox: ... View more

I fired-up our server box and see in ArcCatalog, under "GIS Servers" a connection to "arcgis on FOOBAR001_6443 (admin)" - that should be the connection file. • Windows XP: %USERPROFILE%\Application Data\ESRI\Desktop10.x\ArcCatalog • Windows Server: %USERPROFILE%\AppData\Roaming\ESRI\ArcCatalog • Windows 7: %USERPROFILE%\AppData\Roaming\ESRI\Desktop10.x\ArcCatalog This is where it should live. On my end, I see "arcgis on FOOBAR001_6443 (admin).ags" in the directory. ... View more

James, I don't have any code available off top hand - I know that's the service that is called by default. Well, "find candidates" is, at least. You can set sources: Search | API Reference | ArcGIS API for JavaScript I think you should be able to set it to the Esri default world geocoder as a source yourself, and then set the "searchExtent" property on the source object, kinda like so: var extent = new esri.geometry.Extent({   "xmin":-81.465144,"ymin":26.949436,"xmax":-83.465144,"ymax":28.949436,   "spatialReference":{"wkid":4326} }); var sources = [   {      locator: ,      singleLineFieldName: "SingleLine",      name: "Custom Geocoding Service",      localSearchOptions: {      minScale: 300000,      distance: 50000      },      placeholder: "Search Geocoder",      maxResults: 3,      maxSuggestions: 6,      enableSuggestions: false,      minCharacters: 0 }, {      featureLayer: new FeatureLayer("http://services.arcgis.com/V6ZHFr6zdgNZuVG0/arcgis/rest/services/US_Senators/FeatureServer/0"),     searchFields: ["Name", "Party"],     suggestionTemplate: "${Name}, Party: ${Party}",     exactMatch: false,     outFields: ["*"],     name: "Senators",     labelSymbol: textSymbol,     placeholder: "Senator name",     maxResults: 6,     maxSuggestions: 6,     enableSuggestions: true,     minCharacters: 0    },    {      featureLayer: new FeatureLayer(),{         outFields: ["*"]      });      placeholder: "esri",      name: "A FeatureLayer",      prefix: "",      suffix: "",      maxResults: 1,     maxSuggestions: 6,      searchExtent: extent,      exactMatch: false,      searchFields: [], // defaults to FeatureLayer.displayField      displayField: "", // defaults to FeatureLayer.displayField      labelSymbol: new TextSymbol(),      minCharacters: 0    } ]; We know it's supported, at least in theory, by the service link I posted. I'll have to look into creating a sample app when I get a free moment. ... View more
