Greetings!
I will preface this by stating that I've only been using the ArcGIS Viewer for Flex for the past few weeks, so bear with me on this.
I have a fairly standard application with a few of the canned widgets up an running on our local network, nothing special. For the past several days I've been investigating/attempting ways to link scanned documents (That are saved as .TIFF images) to a point feature class I have (In my mind, something similar to hyperlinking in ArcMap) but to no avail. I've tried doing so through the "Configure Pop-ups" in the Maps tab, as well at trying to get creative with the Identify Widget that's available through ArcGIS Resources. I can't really get either of them to work.
My first question is this: is it possible to (not really knowing the proper term) "Hyperlink" documents from a separate server. The documents reside at location such as this: P:/Engineer GIS/Projects/Section Corner... (The path is much longer, but you should be able to get the picture) while my Flex Application resides on a separate server: E:/Survey2. The linkes are saved via a field called "Hyperlink" in the point attribute table. If I do so through the Pop-up Configuration, I just get an empty box where the image should be and if I do so through the Identify Widget, I get a link that doesn't go anywhere. Also, I am using FlexViewer 3.2 with ArcGIS Server 10.1.
So, I guess my question is: can the Flex Application link to documents on different server? Or, would I have to place them within the E:/Survey2 folder and have to rework the link field?
If further clarification is needed I can provide it, at this point I'm not sure what it would be, so I haven't uploaded any screenshots or provided any code. Any guidance regarding this is greatly appreciated!
