To be clear... a) We are working on an updated server product that has significant new functionality, but we are not at a point where we can talk about that as freely as we can with the tool. b) As you know from our recent announcements, we are getting ready to introduce a public alpha of Flex,

One more thing. You can write your own proxy. Depending on which server language you are using, and whether you need to deal with authentication or not, it can be as simple as two lines of code. Please see: http://labs.macromedia.com/wiki/index.php/Flex:Accessing_Data -Sho -Original

Hi Kenlie. You are almost there! You have three choices: 1) Add a crossdomain.xml file to the server. 2) Request the HTML file from a web server on the same domain as your server (in this case, localhost). 3) Create a proxy. You can find documentation on this here:

I believe what you need to do is to trap ListEvent.ITEM_ROLL_OVER and look at event.columnIndex and event.rowIndex. have you tried this? The easiest way to tell what is going on would be to put a breakpoint on your event handler and to look at the event object in the debugger. -Sho

The "this" keyword refers to the outermost tag that is used in the mxml file. It doesn't matter where in the file you say "this". If you use it on an event handler on a button inside an application called foo.mxml, "this" refers to the application tag. The only exception to this is if you
