ESRI Javascript .NET Integration

Project Description
Visual Studio project that shows how to integrate the Esri Javascript API with .NET

May 2012 Update: The ESRI example had changed, so the code no longer worked. I have now updated.

Esri offer some great examples how to develop map based applications:

http://resources.esri.com/help/9.3/arcgisserver/apis/javascript/arcgis/help/jssamples_start.htm

This project aims to help .NET developers integrate this functionality into their projects.

The initial example shows how to search a map and return the results to an ASP.NET application to display in its data grid.

It is based on this example: http://resources.esri.com/help/9.3/arcgisserver/apis/javascript/arcgis/demos/findtask/find_map_datagrid.html

The changes are as follows:

• Inside a Visual Studio 2010 Web Project
• Uses JQuery to build a JSON data file from the Map Results
• Sends the results to the server side
• De-serializes the JSON into classes
• Binds to an ASP.NET DataView

I have left the original Dojo data grid in for comparison.
