I went ahead and downloaded the newly created AutoComplete Input component from Adobe.com Flex exchange. This component will be one of many to come from the Adobe’s Flex Team. There are a couple included examples which where very easy to follow. In my example I’ll show how to use the AutoComplete Input component to search [...]

I have not been following who is providing the latest ColdFusion MX 7.0.2 hosting, but its important if you are trying to use Flex 2′s RPC services.
I picked up a google news alert that says “CrystalTech Offering ColdFusion MX 7 Web Hosting With Adobe Flex 2″.
There is true power in creating and extending Flex components. As Flex progresses we’ll see more and more components. The interesting thing is a lot of components are created for a specific need a developer has. The slightly smaller set of components being made are ones that allow developers to create new components and applications [...]
There is a create Presentation on “Flex Performance & Tips” by David George at the link below. http://adobedev.adobe.acrobat.com/p71169528/ The main areas of performance consideration for your Flex applications are Object creation, Measurement/layout and Rendering. I found the object creation section to be the most helpful for my past experience but the whole presentation is worth [...]
In my first attempt with WebORB for PHP I came across an issue that was not keen with the examples I was trying to use. The issue had to do with using the “source” attribute on the RemoteObject class. The reason behind the missing feature in WebORB for PHP was that they modeled their services config files after FDS, which is JavaAdapter based. My examples are based on ColdFusion and use the standard services-config.xml <source>*</source> attribute defined for the “ColdFusion” destination, which is created by the ColdFusion connectivity feature in 7.0.2.
The image should explain it all! (I was just looking at the video a few page clicks before this came up)
When Google introduced their new Finanace website a while back of course wanted to figure out what they where using. I do my normal first test of using the right click button on the mouse to see if Flash comes up in the context menu. Sure enough Flash is used on the charting part of [...]
After following the Flex 2 depoyment since the beging Alpha I kind of ignore marketing materials. But today I found myself on Adobe’s site looking at the Flex product page. Click on the “View the Flex Feature Tour” button found on most Flex product pages. The presentation gives you an overview, popular case studies from [...]
If you haven’t read other blog posts about MAXUP read Ted’s post here. I found out there is more information located on barcamp.org wiki pages here. “The Adobe MAX conference showcases Adobe software. MAXUP will allow designers and developers and to showcase their work created with Adobe tools in Barcamp format.” The picture below is [...]
I have a Treo 700w and have been looking into Flash Players for the Window Mobile 5 OS since I got the phone. The PocketPC Flash Player 7 came out earlier this year and worked well with FLV's but not Flex (at least with Treo 700w small memory size). Yesterday Flash Lite 2.1 for Windows [...]
