The ability to set and send form parameters with the same name is available with URLVariables though it’s not quite documented very well (at all?). Below are 4 examples of setting 2 values with same parameter name. The first example results in 1 parameter. The rest result in 2 parameters as expected. // results [...]

Example of Feature Rich Dynamic Item Renderers in Flex 3
Friday, February 20th, 2009
In the last Flex 3 rich feature item renderer example we looked at item renderers that had some nice visual and functional features, in this example we will take it to the next step and introduce some dynamic abilities to the item renderers. By using dynamic item renderers you can create more flexible & reusable [...]

Saturday, February 14th, 2009
Like many people, I’ve been using the FABridge a lot and loving the simplicity it provides. Also like many people I’ve run into the following JavaScript error thrown by the FABridge: You are trying to call recursively into the Flash Player which is not allowed. In most cases the JavaScript setTimeout function, can be used [...]

Monday, February 9th, 2009
I’ve been working with a RESTful service layer a lot recently that uses XML with a default namespace. In an ActionScript library project I have some delegate and model classes that natually use the default xml namespace directive. Once in a while I ran into a mysterious issue where the namespace doesn’t seem to be [...]

Wednesday, January 7th, 2009
The default Flex Slider component allows you to click the track to update the thumb position but does not begin the dragging of the thumb. I wanted that drag behavior but didn’t want to write my own Slider from scratch. I love to read code so I looked at the mx source and found a [...]

Wednesday, December 3rd, 2008
Gumbo has added an "itemRendererFunction" function that allows certain data containers to specify an itemRenderer based on the data item. In this example an FxDataContainer’s dataProvider is set to an ArrayCollection that contains 2 different types of Value Objects. Depending on the type of Value Object the itemRendererFunction returns a different itemRenderer. View Example (right [...]

Wednesday, December 3rd, 2008
I’ve posted an example of a Flex application created with the MAX preview versions of Flash Catalyst and Gumbo. This small demo application was created to test out some of the new features in both Catalyst and Gumbo. It is not a perfect project, but a starting point for further projects. View Example (right click [...]

Tuesday, December 2nd, 2008
Many times you may come up with tasks that seem pretty straight forward but involve a bit of researching. In a recent project, I needed to find a way pass a dynamically generated image from one flex application (swf) to another. My senior developer suggested that I pass the ByteArray data of the image via [...]

Essentially I wanted to reflect and review “the Happening” that was Adobe Max 2008, my first Max. For the most part I was impressed with this, [...]
