Thanks Steve. I'm taking a look at it in the documentation but the usage is a bit vague. Are there any samples showing itemfeaturequery in use?

The stock CGI app supports 2-stage queries like this. So, for instance you can select a county by name or id and then use that geometry to select all hospitals.

Bbox won't quite do it- the spatial select would be based on, for instance, a selected county or town, or a user-defined polygon.

If so then just set that as your map extent as part of doing your attribute query (attributes always do both). There are other options too, let us know more what your spatial query is.

I need to query several layers, selecting based on an area, then select from that selection based on an attribute value. It would be OK to query by the attribute first, then spatial.
