[flexcoders] remoteObject and my If statement

[Chad Gray]

I have a RemoteObject that is firing when a button is clicked.  I want the 
button that is clicked to disappear and another button to appear if the result 
coming back from the remoteObject is true.

What happens is I click the button with a correct login and password (that does 
return the reServalent.Authuser.lastResult as TRUE) and nothing changes.  I 
click the button again and then it works.  My auth button disappear and my 
clockinbutton appears.

Why do I need to press the button twice?  If the roServalent.authUser() is slow 
to retrieve results will the if/else function run without waiting for 
roServalent.authUser.lastResult to return a value?
 

private function authorizeUser():void{
        roServalent.authUser()
        
        if (roServalent.authUser.lastResult == true) {
                authButton.visible = false;
                clockInButton.visible = true;
        }else{
                authButton.visible = true;
                clockInButton.visible = false;
        }
}
