P.S. Remoting and components ROCK. I've got a prototype internal app slapped together in a few days that can manage our flagship product/service. Smokes our browser based version hand over fist...hehe
Not only that...but I replicated much of the administrative backend logic (originally in java) in cfmx with components in that same time span...it'll freak a few folks out around our shop. :-) -----Original Message----- From: Stacy Young [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: Friday, September 06, 2002 10:53 PM To: CF-Talk Subject: RE: Flash Remoting and Popchart I can't...it's a rich client app so the movie location/name is dynamic in that I can be loading these charts in a number of different scenarios and don't know it at runtime... Also it appears Popchart uses straight urls for drilldown making it impossible to have it operate as it's own entity without reloading my page... :( Has anyone implemented drilldown with cfmx built-in graphs?
