Hi Wally,

I think CF FlashForms are a very powerfull feature in ColdFusion, cause you
got with it the whole Flex 1.5 Framework. The docs keep it secret but you
can develop realy Web 2.0 apps, beyond that what the docs described. But you
need for this some ActionScript and Flex knowledge. For example, the docs
tells that there are some restricted AS words that you cant use. If you use
them in a external AS file you can use them without problems. So it makes
you able to create e.g. dynamicly controls. You can also write own MXML
classes and use them. I found also a way to use controls that are not
supported by CF like Slider, NumericStepper, etc. I've posted some articles
about that on my blog (http://www.newsight.de) and made some custom tags for
this. Ok, you have to use often workarounds to get the Flex functionality
but it is possible. You can create apps there similar to Flex apps. And this
is the big pro for me. You should only know how to do it.

Cheers, Artur

Subject: CFFORM Flash form

Is anyone out there seriously coding using the CFFORM flash forms?  I am
seeing no improvement in performance in this area but users are seduced by
the look and feel and think this is the way to go.

Can someone suggest a good discussion on CFFORM flash pros and cons?
