The widget automatically updates based on layer visibility and map extent and attribution information comes from a layer’s custom attribution data or a map service’s copyright text. The Attribution Widget is automatically included when using the full build of the API. When using the compact build, it must be manually included.

    I tried the code completion script in Aptana 3. It works ok within a stand-alone javascript file but not with inline javascript in an HTML file.

      @maho we noticed this as well and noticed this is how other code assist plug-ins work in Aptana. We decided it was acceptable, plus it encourages you to move your JS code to separate files.

    Where can I find the download for the API? We use the off-line version as our FW does not allow users to access the internet.

    This was usually found on http://resources.arcgis.com/content/web/arcgis-javascript-api-download, but I can only find up to version 2.8.

    It doesn’t seem to work for me either in html file or in js file. Am I missing something? Basically I just downloaded the zip file and copy the js file into the project.
