Tim, If you set a breakpoint (using firebug or chrome's developer tools) in addPointsToMap you can check to see if results are returned. One thing you might want to check is this sample is setup to draw points so it defines symbology for point features. Your query task looks like its a parcel layer which probably contains polygons. You'll want to change the symbols below to be SimpleFillSymbols to draw polygon features. defaultSymbol = new esri.symbol.SimpleMarkerSymbol().setColor(new dojo.Color([0,0,255])); highlightSymbol = new esri.symbol.SimpleMarkerSymbol().setColor(new dojo.Color([255,0,0])); ...

There is an extra comma in the sample after setting the style. If you replace the code in the sample with this the map will display. //make a tab container var tc = new dijit.layout.TabContainer({ style:"width:100%;height:100%;" }, dojo.create("div")); ... View more

John, Try using esri.geometry.normalizeCentralMeridian) to normalize the geometry before setting the extent. Here's a blurb from the help that explains what normailzeCentralMeridian does: Normalizes geometries that intersect the central meridian or fall outside the world extent so they stay within the current coordinate system. Only supported for Web Mercator and geographic coordinates. (As of v2.2) Hello All, I'm using the web mercator projection and wrapAround180 option to provide seamless panning across the antimeridian.  I would like to set the extent of the map to an area which in geographic coordinates would cross the antimeridian, e.g. var bbox = new esri.geometry.Extent(175.0,15.0,-175.0,25.0, new esri.SpatialReference({ wkid:4326 })); map.setExtent(esri.geometry.geographicToWebMercator(bbox),true); However this does not work, centering instead on central Africa and setting the zoom level to the maximum. Can someone please suggest the appropriate way to do this? Thanks! --john ... View more

The issue with the fonts can be resolved by adding the following stylesheet to your application. <link href="http://serverapi.arcgisonline.com/jsapi/arcgis/2.3/js/dojo/dijit/themes/claro/document.css" rel="stylesheet" type="text/css"> As for why the map isn't loading its hard to diagnose the issue without seeing your application or the code. Is the broken site publicly available? If so can you post a link? ... View more

It looks like there was a trailing comma at line 143. While some browsers (Chrome, Firefox) will ignore trailing commas IE does not. I've removed the comma and will update the sample as soon as possible. {'fieldName':'comment','label':'Comments','isEditable':true,'stringFieldOption':esri.dijit.AttributeInspector.STRING_FIELD_OPTION_TEXTAREA,} Until the fixed version of the sample is ready you can run the code by removing the comma after STRING_FIELD_OPTION_TEXTAREA and the sample should run. ...

I thought you were trying to set a default value. If the behavior has changed between 2.2 and 2.3 that may be a bug. I'll take a closer look. ... View more

The attribute inspector date calendar displays the date stored in the feature's date field. New fields don't have a value so the default date of January 1, 1970 is displayed. You can modify this by setting the date's value to the current date (or whatever value you'd like) when a new feature is created. To do this listen for the feature layer's 'onBeforeApplyEdits' event and update the date for the newly added feature(s). In the sample below 'pointsOfInterest' is the feature layer whose date field you want to update.         dojo.connect(pointsOfInterest,"onBeforeApplyEdits",function(adds,updates,deletes){           //update the date field for new features to be today's date.             dojo.forEach(adds,function(add){               add.attributes.notedate = new Date().getTime();             });         }); ...

It looks like Microsoft has changed the switch over date to July 6.
