RE: [flexcoders] Re: A web survey based on Flex
At its most basic, think of a Local Shared Object as a high-capacity cookie. You're right that it's basically a bunch of name/value pairs, but the "value" can be just about any object type you'd use. I know even less about your setup, but since you're talking about getting the information to a server you probably don't want to replace your mxml survey object, although it's not out of the question. The advantage of a Local Shared Object survey object over an mxml survey object is persistence - that is,your data will remain between sessions, but obviously only locally (on the computer it was created on). There's no reason you can't have both either - the mxml survey object simply gets copied to the local shared object and retrieved whenever your app starts up/user logs in/whatever.

The only place I might direct you some place different is where you save to the local drive if the server is unavailable. For this part, I would suggest you take a look at a concept called 'Local Shared Objects' Without knowing all of the details of your setup, I would suggest that saving an XML file to their system without the help of a server is going to be tricky if not impossible. --Mike Thanks Mike... I did a bunch of Googling on "Local Shared Objects", and I think I understand a little bit better now what I might do. However, it sounds like this 100% replaces the mxml file that I had created that was to represent my survey object... is that correct? Essentially I'll just be creating this empty object with it's own name, and stuffing key-value pairs into it upon each submit of a ViewStack Canvas?After storing all that in this generic empty object, how do I get it to the server for proper storage in a database, and what would be the best way to split out the data for later analysis?I really need some help here - I think I'm really missing something important, and I'm getting desperate to deliver this survey soon... any help or direct contact with me would be fantastic, if someone's willing to help out a newbie.Thanks,m __._,_.___ -- Flexcoders Mailing List FAQ: http://groups.yahoo.com/group/flexcoders/files/flexcodersFAQ.txt Search Archives: http://www.mail-archive.com/flexcoders%40yahoogroups.com SPONSORED LINKS Software development tool Software development Software development services Home design software Software development company Your email settings: Individual Email|Traditional Change settings via the Web (Yahoo!

RE: [flexcoders] Flex with FMS (something like Breeze...)
Hi David, I assume you already know, but just in case... FMS ships with a sample that does exactly that ( I can't think of the name of it off the top of my head - actually it might have been a FCS sample) but obviously done in Flash, not Flex. You could, however,use that as a starting point to build the Flex front end. You'd of course need to be aware of AS2/AS3 differences etc...

RE: [flexcoders] advanced datagrid filtering
Can you post the URL for this example? I'd be interested in seeing it.

Subject: [flexcoders] advanced datagrid filtering
I found an example online that allows you to filter a datagrid by
typing values into a text field. The problem i can only get it to
work with xml not with a remote object.
XML
var name = employeeModel.employee[i].name;
REMOTE OBJECT
how could I write something like this so I could get the data of one
column of the remote object data for the column name?
mx:RemoteObject id=employeeModel fault=mx.controls.Alert.show
(event.fault.faultstring, 'Error')
source=getData endpoint=@ContextRoot()/flashservices/gateway
showBusyCursor=true
mx:method name=getEmployees/
/mx:RemoteObject
for(var i = 0; i employeeModel.getEmployees.result.length; i++ ){
var name = employeeRO.getEmployees.result[i].name;
mx.controls.Alert.show(name);
}
