Thanks I got the layer control figured out now. I wish you could set the map.viewscale= is the only thing. I would still have to do a Javascript refresh. So this ZoomToView(x, y, scale, refresh) might be just as good either way. Is there a way to set the scale serverside using the map object?
Thanks!
