If you don’t need to parse the HTML as XML (i.e., you can take it as a blob of text) then HTTPService would allow you to do it with a resultFormat=”text”.  The problem with leaving the resultFormat as e4x or object is that your HTML may not be valid XML.  If it is valid XML then you can take it as e4x and may have an easier time parsing it.

 

The session management should work as long as the ASP pages were using cookies.

Subject: [flexcoders] Integrating Flex 1.5 or 2.0 with Community Server (Telligent)

 

Hello,

 

I’m developing a social networking website using “Community Server” portal software based on ASP.NET 2.0, more info about this product can be found at www.communityserver.com. My project is to deploy Community Server with Flex 1.5 or 2.0 for the presentation layer, in replacement of the existing default set of aspx pages, skins and themes. I would like to do this with the lowest amount code possible, considering that I can write HTML, CSS or MXML by hand but I’m still novice with Visual Studio and other languages with which I’m limited to existing code modification and skinning.

 

With this in mind, my questions are:

 

1- Can Flex get data from existing aspx pages through HTTPService, when those pages return HTML (normally intended for direct browsing)?

 

2- Is there any requirement or specificities regarding the data format or structure returned by the aspx templates?

 

3- Is there any issued related to session management in this context of HTTPService Post / Get?

 

Thank you all for your time,

 

Stephane B.
