1.4 is now available for download!<br>
<br>
Some of the very notable improvements include:<br>
<br>
1) Buffered Select service now included with improvements to line, and point
feature selections.<br>
2) Better support for relative paths. <br>
3) Full Printing in PHP (No python required! Includes printing from WMS
services!) <br>
4) Much improved startup code, making it much faster on load with no more odd
image flashing!<br>
5) Popup/Maptips have improved modularity and predictability. <br>
6) Image error handling has been drastically improved. -- No more
obnoxious perpetual "Loading..." message when there is an error with
one of your images!!!<br>
7) No more views in the mapbook! Views have been moved to the configuration.js
and are now included as a JSON object, making it significantly easier to create
multiple "Jump To:" zoom boxes.<br>
8) New **VASTLY IMPROVED** Slider-Navigation Bar!<br>
9) Re-written ReferenceMap now allows for a Fixed-view (traditional ArcIMS
style) or Dynamic Google-Maps style!<br>
10) Client-side MIN/MAXSCALE settings are now enforced correctly!<br>
11) We have completely revamped the directory structure to make more seamless
Linux/Windows updates.<br>
<br>
Those who are upgrading from a 1.0 or 1.2 application, please download this
application to a new directory or make sure you backup your 1.0/1.2 application
to a separate directory! There are some major changes to the
configuration. This is not menat to be a complete summary guide! Brian is
working on something more complete, this highlights many of the major
configuration changes! Study the new configuration.js files closely before
performing a full upgrade!<br>
<br>
1) Views.<br>
a) There are no more views in the MAPBOOK!!!
"Views" have been moved to the configuration.js file! There are
now two variables for storing views, one stores the "initial" or
"default" mapview, the other is used to make the "Jump To"
boxes.<br>
var INITIAL_VIEW = "X,Y,X,Y"; /* This
is the new initial view variable in the configuration.js */<br>
b) To create multiple "Jump To" boxes is now VERY
easy by changing the javascript variable "VIEWS". For example,
to create multiple drop downs one could do the following:<br>
var VIEWS = {<br>
'Jump To:' : {<br>
'Dakota County' : '521238.614537864,4924218.86673578,473921.947801381,4974430.36885032',<br>
'Parcel Data' :
'497205.409367,4923984.423582,477595.805945,4941970.52988'<br>
},<br>
'Cities':" : {<br>
'Apple Valley': "X,Y,X,Y",<br>
'Rosemount' : "X,Y,X,Y"<br>
};<br>
<br>
2) If you want to use the print service please take a look at the updated print
service definition in the countydemo.xml mapbook. You will want to update
your service to match.<br>
<br>
3) *** You will need to update your "index.html" files. There is
significantly less javascript code in them and there has been many updates to
make this more friendly. ***<br>
<br>
4) *** You default skin color may need to be changed by editing the
"index.html" file. This is because of some updates to the
Theme/Skin manager. There are two CSS lines you will need to
change:<br>
<br>
11: <link href="skins/green/styles.css" rel="stylesheet"
type="text/css" id="theme-styles"/><br>
12: <link href="skins/green/menubar.css"
rel="stylesheet" type="text/css"
id="theme-menu"/><br>
<br>
You will need to substitute "green" for whatever skin/theme you are
using.<br>
<br>
5) Temporary directories are now configured in two places. In the demo
all of the temporary directory information is now stored in
"temp_directory.map" which you can see in the
"maps_countydemo" folder. PHP scripts also need this
information and it should be set in the "php/Configuration.php" file.<br>
<br>
6) If you find a layer is having issues with popups, edit its mapfile and add
the following:<br>
[snip]<br>
WEB<br>
....<br>
QUERYFORMAT "text/xml"<br>
...<br>
END<br>
[snip]<br>
<br>
<br>
7) The slider settings have completely changed.
"configuration.js" line 156 has all the new settings. Each step
is pre-defined and you can optionally name the step.<br>
<br>
You might be asking yourself, "Is it worth all of the pain and suffering
to do the upgrade?" The answer is a resounding, "Yes!"
There are many, many improvements to this version. <br>

As always, I'll be surfing the lists for any questions. I'm also
available for hire if anyone would like me to come out a perform the upgrade
for you or provide some assistance.<br>
