Hi, I've been programming for awhile, but am new to Flex and was wondering what the best way of passing values from screen to screen is.
Currently, I have two canvases which have a master detail relationship. When I click on a button in the master canvas, I want to pass the record id to the detail canvas so that the detail canvas can query the server for the details data. simple master detail. To code this in flex, what I did was when the button was clicked on the master, I saved the record id into a Local Shared Object, and when my Detail canvas appears, I grab the id from said Local Shared Object and make my server side request. This works fine, but I was wondering -- is this the Best Practice way? I haven't seen much by way of design patterns etc for flex pages(I've seen the AS book) so was wondering if I should be doing this differently. Thanks
