Been away from Javascript api for a long time.  Things have really changed and I cannot find my way around anymore.  I need a sample of code that shows how to display the map coordinates when moving the cursor over a map.  Any ideas?

BTW, this new forum feels like Facebook more than a forum.  Not sure I like it.

Charles,

Look at this sample: Create Map Display Mouse Coordinates

EDIT:

Show x,y coordinates | ArcGIS API for JavaScript

Here's a good place to start when trying to get back into the JavaScript API

ArcGIS API for JavaScript

I think that is where the sample Rickey mentions came from, but couldn't find it right off.

I would suggest looking at the  Web AppBuilder for ArcGIS (Developer Edition) | ArcGIS for Developers And if looking there, check out my resource list for it  Web AppBuilder Developer Edition – Customization Resource List   to find help geting started and installed, many samples, custom widgets, etc.    One thing to note, it requires a ArcGIS Online or Portal for ArcGIS access to get started.

re: GeoNet.  I was reluctant at first for the same reason (i.e. social media look) but it it a very good and very active platform.  You can customize it to get as much or little info sent to you as you want.  Worth giving it a chance.  My opinion.
