Legend widget help

[RachelLinonis]

[ATTACH=CONFIG]15546[/ATTACH]Hello everyone. I'm having trouble send the legend info about the layer to the legendDiv element.

I'll post my code, but you won't be able to see much. Our arcgis server hasn't been made public yet. I can see the layer and the attribute breaks, so I know it exists. (I've attached a screenshot as proof!)

I was wondering if anyone could take a peak at the bottom-half of my code, to see if I'm missing anything or what could be going wrong ...

TY 🙂

Looks like you were adding your childrenMilitaryLayer to the map using map.addLayer which doesn't fire the 'onLayersAddResult' event. If you switch to map.addLayers then your code should work. Here's the code from my test app that shows this working with the Earthquakes feature layer.
