Hi I'm trying to hack about with the query tasks to get a YEs/No reply to a simple question - does the point passed to a page fall within our area I have code like (x & y get defined earlier from URL parameters) function checkus() {   queryTask = new esri.tasks.QueryTask("http://<our server>/ArcGIS2/rest/services/eforms2/MapServer/0");   var point = new esri.geometry.Point(x, y, new esri.SpatialReference({wkid:27700}));   query = new esri.tasks.Query();   query.returnGeometry = false;   query.geometry = point   query.outFields = ["admin_name"];   queryTask.execute(query);   dojo.connect(queryTask, "onComplete", function (results) {    if (results.features.length>0) {     alert("In Our Area");    }    else {        window.location = "NoUs.asp"    }       }        ); } I am trying to insert a variable inside the the bit that looks for the number of records returned, but try as I can, I can't get the variable to be global, as soon as that part finishes, so, it appears does the variable. I must be doing something totally daft here. Cheers ACM ... View more

Hi I'm passing two parameters to a map, car number plate and date.  It fails - Date on its own works - the debug is; layerDefinitions: Array[1] 0: "time>'2012-02-16'" Car Reg (twice to prove the AND works) also works layerDefinitions: Array[1] 0: "vehreg='BF58UJJ' and vehreg='BF58UJJ'" But car Reg and date fails, with a "TypeError" layerDefinitions: Array[1] 0: "time>'2012-02-16' and vehreg='BF58UJJ'" I'm using the latest (2.7) version of the API in compact mode. Any ideas? Cheers ACM ... View more

I think I have answered my own question, but as I couldn't find it documented anywhere I thought I'd post for future reference. (feel free to point me to where it is documented if I am wrong) It appears that if you do not enable "web access" for your map service the legend widget fails.  Looking at the Chrome diagnostic, the actual image URL seems to be http://utility.arcgis.com/sharing/tools/legend?soapUrl=http%3A//<my domain name>/ArcGIS2/services/locate1/MapServer&returnbytes=true&f=json&callback=dojo.io.script.jsonp_dojoIoScript3._jsonpCallback Which seems to confirm what I discovered after a lot of grief, no web access, no legend. ACM Edit- Doh! IT is documented, I just didn't fully understand it. If the layers are version 10 or lower the legend is created using the ArcGIS.com legend service. In order to use the ArcGIS.com legend service your map service needs to be publicly accessible and your application must be able to access ArcGIS.com. ... View more

Hi Two questions - my ArcGISDynamicMapServiceLayer is set to 150 dpi/PNG24, yet my overview map is coming out at 96 dpi?  Is there any way of controling this? Secondly, when I print in IE8 - even with .esriOverviewMap .ovwHighlight {          border: solid 2px #004F00 !important;          background-color: transparent !important; The extent rectangle on the overview map is a solid rectangle.  Chrome works fine.  Is this an IE issue?

Hi When a user first uses a page of mine, which uses API 2.5, it hangs when initially loading, before it gets as far as the CSS, so all the items are showing unstyled.  Event logs show Hanging application iexplore.exe, version 7.0.6000.17103, hang module hungapp, version 0.0.0.0, hang address 0x00000000. Killing iexplorer and starting again and it all works fine. Deleting temp internet files causes this to happen a second time.  I'm guessing it is some conflict with the downloading of all the API code at once. Any ideas? ACM ... View more
