Hi I have some code that uses an identify task.  In the idenfify task execute function, I loop through the layers found and the fields found to build up a set of tables (one per layer) containing all the field aliases and values - basically recreating the ArcIMS html viewer Identify All results. I pop these up in a dojo dialog box. The box is defined by CSS as a specific percentage - .dijitDialog{   max-height: 50%;   max-width:50%;   overflow: auto; } this works fine for a few results, but when I have a fair few results, the vertical scroll bar appears - but the initial position is half way down the document.  I'm not sure if this is something I've missed or an issue with dojo itself.

Hi I thought I'd give something back for a change and couldn't see anything like this already posted. I wanted to use the popup widget as demonstrated  on this sample.  But use it so that the layer/field definitions were generated from the map service, in order to cut out hard coding changes, so if a new layer or field are added all that needs to be done is to ensure the alias is set in the MXD. Hacking around a few other samples and I ended up with this.   function executeIdentifyTask(evt) {         identifyParams.geometry = evt.mapPoint;         identifyParams.mapExtent = map.extent;         var deferred = identifyTask.execute(identifyParams);         deferred.addCallback(function (response) {             // response is an array of identify result objects                // Let's return an array of features.             return dojo.map(response, function (result) {                 var feature = result.feature;                 var infotext;   var rowc = 0;   infotext = "<table width=99% class='popuptable'>";                 infotext += "<tr><th colspan='2' scope='col'>" + result.layerName + "</th></tr>";                 for (j in result.feature.attributes) {                     var template = new esri.InfoTemplate("", result.feature.attributes );                          if (isEven(rowc)) {rowstyle='idlineeven'}      else{       rowstyle='idlineodd'      }      console.debug(result)           if (j.toUpperCase() != "OBJECTID" && j.toUpperCase() != "SHAPE" && j.toUpperCase() != "SHAPE_AREA" && j.toUpperCase() != "SHAPE_LENGTH") {                         infotext += "<tr class='" + rowstyle + "'><th>" + j + ": </strong><td>";                         infotext += result.feature.attributes +  "</td></tr>" ;       rowc = rowc +1                     }                 }     infotext += "</table>"                 var template = new esri.InfoTemplate("", infotext);                 feature.setInfoTemplate(template);     map.infoWindow.resize(400, 200);     return feature;             });         });         map.infoWindow.setFeatures([deferred]);         map.infoWindow.show(evt.mapPoint);     } I also needed a "Is a number odd or even function" function isEven(value) { return /^\d+$/.test(value.toString()) ? (value%2 === 0 ? true : false ) : false; }; In order to style the output nicely using basic CSS .idlineeven { background-color:#F30 } .idlineodd { background-color:#3C0 } .popuptable{text-align:left} Working example on my personal site Any comments or suggestions for improvement or areas where I've used bad practice would be welcome.  As it mainly was a cut and paste job from various other examples I have no idea really how it works, it just does, 😄 Cheers ACM ...

Hi WE have AGS 10.1, of course on Server 2008R2.  Running on a virtual server.  Our server guys tell me there is a debate as to whether or not giving virtual servers multiple cores has any  benefit.  Apparently, they say, it is all down to the software, not only must be able to multi-thread, but also must be aware of the fact that it is on a Virtual server. What are peoples feelings/experience here on the matter? Cheers ACM ... View more

Hi I'm using 3.0 of the API and 10.1 AGS, so the latest public versions - I think I have set up my proxy as per the well linked post here (http://forums.esri.com/Thread.asp?c=158&f=2396&t=297001) and in my proxy config I have     <serverUrl url="http://maps2.mydomainname/arcgis/rest/services/securetest"                matchAll="true"                dynamicToken="true"                host="eddc-gis2"                userName="webmap"                password="password for the account webmap"></serverUrl> The user webmap is in a user role, the role has all the requied rights. In the debug log I get ARCGIS_TOKEN Authentication, Token is not available in the request, request is treated as anonymous I am sure my page is calling the proxy page OK Any ideas people?  I can't find a full walk through for setting this up, also I have found how to secure the services, how to generate a temporary token, but I can't see how to incorporate that token into my webpage (although I'll only need to use this if we open access to our services up to outside bodies, I do want to know) Cheers ACM ...
