Hi Chris,
I'm paraphrasing, but you probably want something along these lines:
In the view:
<mx:Button label="Toggle States" click="toggleStates()"
enabled="{model.isAuthenticated}"/>
…
<mx:Button label="Login" click="dispatchEvent(new LoginEvent
(password.text))"/>
In the controller
public function onLoginAttempt (e:LoginEvent)
{
if (passwordIsValid(e.pasword))
{
model.isAuthenticated = true;
}
}
Cheers,
Lach

I have an application that has two states (View and Edit), and one
button toggles between the two states. There are a few components, but
none of them are required for the non-logged-in state.
Can someone recommend a methodology for implementing some very simple
security in he main app? i.e. typing in a username/password (or maybe
just a password only), and on success, enabling the button that
toggles
the states.
It seems that most articles I've read on the topic are at a much
higher
level, but not all of us are building enterprise level Flex apps. I
don't have FDS, I can't use RemoteObject on my server (HostMySite),
and
I'm using ColdFusion 7.01 on the backend.
Thanks - Chris
