The sample is in the Feature Layer folder and is called 'Format Info Window', here's the link again hopefully it'll work this time: http://help.arcgis.com/EN/webapi/javascript/arcgis/demos/fl/fl_infowindow.html You can't directly format the dates in the info window at this release, you have to listen for the layer's click event and format the contents of the info window there. At version 2.2 this will no longer be necessary. dojo.connect(featureLayer, 'onClick', function(e) {           /*some of the values have a quote in the name - remove that then split the string           to separate the common and scientific names. */           var attr = e.graphic.attributes.qSpecies.replace('"', "").split("::");           //if the common name isn't included display the scientific name instead.           var commonName = dojo.string.trim((attr[1] === "") ? attr[0] : attr[1]);           //wikipedia uses the genus_species so build that value to append to wikipedia url           var scientificName = dojo.string.substitute("${0}_${1}", attr[0].split(" "));                     //populate the info window           map.infoWindow.setTitle(e.graphic.attributes.qAddress);           map.infoWindow.setContent("<b>" + commonName + "</b><br /><a target='_blank' href=http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/" + scientificName + ">Wikipedia Entry</a>");           map.infoWindow.show(e.screenPoint, map.getInfoWindowAnchor(e.screenPoint));         }); ...

Steve and Jeff, I updated a service to try and reproduce the problem but my legend doesn't display multiple items. The test service is public: https://servicesbeta.esri.com/ArcGIS/rest/services/SanJuan/Trails/MapServer The Trail Conditions layer has a unique value renderer and I grouped two of the items (maintenance and bridge). I also created a group layer (Trails, Regional Trail Conditions) just in case that was the issue. I then modified the Legend Widget sample from the help to use the San Juan layer and in my tests there are no duplicate items. Is there something in your service that is substantially different? ...

Eric, I haven't noticed this issue, is it only reproducible with a particular version of IE? Any details you can provide on how to reproduce the issue would be helpful. Thanks Kelly ... View more

At 2.2 we are making some changes to simplify this process but for now here's a sample that shows how to format the contents of an info window. This sample formats string values but could be modified to format numeric or date values. http://help.arcgis.com/EN/webapi/jav...nfowindow.html For date formatting you can use dojo.date.locale.format, the 'Page through records in a table' sample uses this to format date values: http://help.arcgis.com/en/webapi/javascript/arcgis/help/jssamples_start.htm#jssamples/fl_paging.html ...

Do you have a test service that shows the problem? Any response from ESRI? What's the best way to submit this as a bug report, given that I'm an EDN customer so don't have access to the full tech support? Thanks, Steve ... View more

You have to add a dojo.require to your application to include the geometry service: dojo.require("esri.tasks.geometry"); More details on the compact build can be found here: http://help.arcgis.com/en/webapi/javascript/arcgis/help/jshelp_start.htm#jshelp/inside_compactbuild.htm ... View more

On a related note its not necessary to specify all the values for the layer definition. Here's a simple layer definition that worked for me in your test application.     var mylayerDefinition = {           "geometryType": "esriGeometryPoint",           "drawingInfo": {             "renderer": {               "type": "simple",               "symbol": {                 "type": "esriPMS",                 "url": "reddot.png",                 "imageData": "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",                 "contentType": "image/png",                 "width": 15,                 "height": 15               }             }           },           "fields": [{             "name": "name",             "type": "esriFieldTypeString",             "alias": "Name",             "length": 50           }]         }; ...

It looks like you'll need to specify the url to the symbol for this to work in IE 8. If the url property doesn't contain http:// it assumes that the location is relative. "symbol": {                 "type": "esriPMS",                 "url": "http://somename/somelocation/reddot.png",                 "imageData": "iVBORw0KGgoAAAANSUhEUgAAACYAAAAmCAYAAACoPemuAAAAAXNSR0IArs4c6QAAAAZiS0dEAP8A/wD/oL2nkwAAAAlwSFlzAAALEwAACxMBAJqcGAAAAAd0SU1FB9oGGBcGLvZ5AIUAAATDSURBVFjD3Zg/aBt3FMe/v9+d7iSfUnNClAolFWnsRaF4LKU2HrK4hJYMKUQiJRRClnbKEE8Z2s1Dh9Bkryk+OoQshZAlhGIPaUpxlIDbRgqOIlSZoNxhx2fpTr8/HXynKL......... ...

The Map.graphics object is only available after the map's onLoad event has fired.  For example: dojo.connect(map, "onLoad", function() { ShowLocation(-81.3765, 28.54175); });   function ShowLocation(x, y) {     var point = new esri.geometry.Point(x, y, new esri.SpatialReference({wkid:4326}));     var simpleMarkerSymbol = new esri.symbol.SimpleMarkerSymbol();     var graphic = new esri.Graphic(point, simpleMarkerSymbol);         map.graphics.add(graphic); } ...

There are several css classes for the legend dijit that allow you to alter the default appearance, here's an example where the font color and family are modified for the text in the legend:       .esriLegendLayerLabel{         font-family:'Monotype Corsiva';         color:red;       }       .esriLegendServiceLabel{         font-family: 'Times New Roman';         color:green;       }       .esriLegendService{         color:orange;         font-weight:bold;       } The API Reference for the JavaScript API has a listing of the CSS classes. ...
