I think I figured it out. Because I am using the Cairngorm Model
Locator pattern to control the popup state (thus the ObserveValue
class) I need to be very strict about not trying to call popups
directly. In this case, when I called the popup via a direct
function call, I was not updating the model and thus there was a NULL
value on the model that would have otherwise been set. When the
popup opened from a direct call, it saw this NULL value and thew an
error. My mistakeI need to stick with my pattern for better or
for worse It is so tempting to take short cuts though!
Thanks for the help though.

I am having some trouble with a popup window. Here is the popup
code:
private function changePassword() : void
{
var pwWindow:IFlexDisplayObject = PopUpManager.createPopUp
(this, WinChangePassword, true);
}
if I call it from a Link Button I get a Can't Access Property of

However, when I call it from the ObserveValue Component I am
using, it works fine.
ac:ObserveValue id=pwchange source={model.changePw}
value={1} handler={changePassword} /
Also, when i check the debugger in both cases it shows pwWindow =
null. (I am not sure what it is supposed to be.)
Thanks for the suggestions.

RE: [flexcoders] Re: DB access in Apollo

Re: [flexcoders] Re: Question for all you SQL Query experts
I work with databases all of the time. You can mimic a sort of can-queries screen where you can have a toggle between novice and expert by adding a text box where you can add your own select criteria by just typing them in. I am guessing that these should only be using the SELECT statement and nothing that can harm the database. so the text box will have the words SELECT on top of it and then a text box with the fields listing. Then another caption that reads ORDER BY and another text box so that they can sort their results as well. Of course these is only for the experts. They Novice users will have only the list of fields as you specified and the drop down list with AND/OR.

We have an extensive parts database, and the only way to truly search this thing, is by giving users the ability to perform robust and, or as well as and/or type queries.

Re: [flexcoders] Re: Auto incrementing values for datagrid
I think there are only two ways to do it. Create a Class that keeps track of this Auto Increment Variable which will contain and auto increment every time you add 1 to the variable. Or you can link this to a bankEnd Database which will keep track of the number for you. There are 3 flavors these days with databases: 1. Use XML by converting it from the server either via Php or Coldfusion (or whatever other server language you like). 2. Flash Remoting 3. FDS Also if you have many people using this datagrid if you don't use some kind of backend database, how are you going to keep track of who has the maximum number for you to auto increment. Let me know how it turns out.

First thing you should do is obtain a copy of WAMP server which will create a webserver for you with Apache, MySQL, and PHP Next make sure that the WAMP server is running and that you myPhpAdmin from your localhost Create database and tables or run the script provided in the tutorials Also make sure you add a couple of records, for some reason they did not take into account if there were no records, nothing gets returned Just make sure you add the php file to the root of your localhost server.

Part of Flex data access is RPC serivces, which includes Remoting. When it first came out, before Flex, it was called Flash MX Remoting. In Flex remoting is done by the RemoteObject component using Action Message Format (AMF). With Flex 2 AMF3 was introduced a newer AMF format. There are a couple PHP projects support AMF0/3 a break down is below. AMFPHP supports AMF0, uses PHP4 and has been around for a long time. SabreAMF (http://osflash.org/sabreamf) - supports AMF0/AMF3 and uses PHP5. This is a generic server that can be extend for many uses. This is under a BSD license.
