Could you post the entire error message? What is an example of an invalid character? Is it always the same character that you could simply replace or ignore? You might try Copy Features rather than Feature Class to Feature Class, as well. ... View more

This ended up being more complicated than I expected, but here's what I got. I have doubt there's a more direct route. Also, there be some hidden gotchas in your data. It updates a field called "ord", based on labels in "rnd" (in format "102-65NE"), from a feature class "points": >>> from operator import itemgetter # import itergetter function ... myList = [] # make empty list ... fc = "points" ... labelField = "rnd" ... orderField = "ord" ... with arcpy.da.SearchCursor(fc,["OID@",labelField]) as cursor: # loop through your feature class ...    for row in cursor: ...        twp = str(row[1].split("-")[0]) # get township ...        if len(row[1].split("-")) > 1: # if there is more than just TWP ...            sec = "" ...            qtr = "" ...            for x in row[1].split("-")[1]: # loop through characters after hyphen ...                if x.isdigit(): ...                    sec += str(x) # add to section if numerical ...                else: ...                    qtr += str(x) # add to quarter if letter ...            if len(qtr) == 0: ...                qtr = 0 ...        else: ...            sec = 0 ...        print twp ...        myList.append({"OID":row[0],"TWP":int(twp),"SEC":int(sec),"QTR":qtr}) # add to list ... myList = sorted(myList, key=itemgetter("TWP","SEC","QTR")) # sort list in place, by TWP, SEC, QTR ... with arcpy.da.UpdateCursor(fc,["OID@",orderField]) as cursor: # start updating ...    for row in cursor: ...        row[1] = next(index for (index, d) in enumerate(myList) if d["OID"] == row[0]) # enumerate list and match OIDs ...        cursor.updateRow(row) # update row to include a number ...

By setting a global variable, you can keep track of which click you're on: var count = 0; Increment each time the button is clicked (in your execute function): count++; Get the proper result (in showResults function): var featureAttributes = results.features[count].attributes; Finally, reset the counter when the id changes: count = 0; JS Bin - Collaborative JavaScript Debugging ...

This is a very broad question. Not trying to be too snarky, but I assume it would be similar to asking you, "Is there a manual for computer science?" Your best resource will be the help, probably the Geodata section​ or What is a Layer?. For more JS API-geared help, try here​ (especially the esri/layers section). ... View more

Make sure your data is projected. The following Python script will copy features from a layer ("polys"), the number of times specified in "numCopies", separated by the distance "distBtw" (in the layer's linear unit) ^ the script uses the distance unit taken from the spatial reference. Once your coordinate system is defined, it should work. ... View more

Your field "Total_Time" is Float, but you are trying to force in the String returned from your function. Change the data type to either String or Date, and make sure that's what your function returns. ... View more
