...hide the REST URLs? ...unnecessary hits on those URLs You really are talking about two different, although related, issues. Others have done a pretty good job of explaining already. 1. Hiding the URLS, or hiding the ArcGIS Server 2. Avoiding the unintended use of services For #1, you can use a proxy on the server that changes the service from .../arcgis/rest/xxxx/mapserver to keep people from knowing the data source URL, but if the client (browser) is requesting the data they will still see how to hit your service, so not much is accomplished. For #2, you can secure the service with a long term token tied to the website so that people can't use it in their web applications or ArcMap desktop. However, they can still get to the data either from your site and the javascript console, or faking request headers. We think we might have people that just click identify on every feature in the map to farm the secured data 🙂 To really avoid people seeing the URLs or getting data from the service wholesale (if that is your intent), you would need to make a server-side application that requests the data server-side and then only sends them what you want them to see. They won't see where the data came from or be able to request it themselves separately. Of course a busy site will put a lot of load on the webserver. ... View more

I'm going to guess it's because the 'hidden' div has no height element yet. You could try a couple things Mess with css until it has a height, like make the div and it's container(s) 100%. Will probably be a lot of trial and error. Don't call the createEditing function till the editing tab is selected I would suggest option 2 because it reduces initial page load time, and never loads that stuff at all if the user never selects the editing tab. ...

Why don't you do something like function showQueryResults(results) {   dom.byId("facilityDetailDiv").innerHTML = "";   var s = "", aliases = results.fieldAliases;   for (var i=0, il=results.features.length; i<il; i++) {      var featureAttributes = results.features.attributes;     for (att in featureAttributes) {        s = s + "<b>" + (aliases.hasOwnProperty(att) && aliases[att]) + ":" + featureAttributes[att] + "<br>";     }     s = s + "<br>";   }    dom.byId("facilityDetailDiv").innerHTML = s;  } The hasOwnProperty method just safeguards that you don't try to retrieve a value for a non-existent key. ...
