Hi Scott,
I have been through many Flex Tutorials but unfortunately our world lacks of
tutorials for connectivity with ColdFusion. I am an experianced CF developer
but unfortunately I cannot figure out how to proceed with data through Flex
and CF.
Indeed - your way is much easier to write and better to understand than the
one that I have posted. I will keep that one :-) Thanks!
But still... the 'fault' function in the HTTPService tag is always
triggered! Even with your own way.
How can I handle this? All I want is to be able to 'alert' the users that
there is some kind of error (I know how to get the exact error message
through the event handler) but I have no clue how to trigger this function
if and only if there is some kind of problem in my CFM file.
any ideas?
Thanks,
George
