You could use the utility method getClassName. ie. if (lyr.getClassName()=='DynLayer') - Kevin > ----- Original Message ----- > From: Brian Hayes > To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] > Sent: Sunday, September 21, 2003 10:58 AM > Subject: RE: [Dynapi-Help] Where does this need to be poted? > > > O.k I just did a little test, and the below code only seems to work if you > put a layer inside a layer, but if your layer is larger than your page (not > in side a layer, but simply on added to the page) it doen't work..
