greatly increases efficiency if you’ve ever used asp.net .. as that framework postbacks to the server on drop down list selected.. or button clicks … ect this requires the server to regenterate the whole page all over again. php prado does the same.

this new model… gets the page 1 time and calls the server only when a new service is requested… and only that data is transfered .. not the full page with css, js, ect

response time is improved as … all the data and full application is on the users computer… user sees changes automatically .. .inside the pluggin.. the pluggin creates a queue of requests being made to the server… but to the user.. they can mess with other controls while something else is occuring… much more responsive than a submit and wait for page to regenerate.

Since most controllers still only support c. Putting a website with lots of user input post backs can be a challenge to support. I had planned to build an asp.net framework in c++ modeled after php prado but instead went with this technology - flex. now i just need to build a soap server in c++ which is the only way to retrieve flex data... other than loadvars in a querystring ria also make adding web client applications into embedded environements simple and inexpensive.

Problem is you can't just drop a file into a directory and it update the site, instead your forced to compile it. which blows from a deployment perspective. Think about supporting muliple themes. for each layout you need a compiled version. once complete you recognize you need to update a component... oops lets recompile the 10 different themes again. -- so whats the command line to compile my large project? ide is incomparable to visual studio. >markvan i'll like to take a look at your graph editing project... is it publicly viewable? http://capstone.tamu.edu/Teams/Fall%20'06/Robust%20Haven/documentation/gui.jpg - sounds like a project i created previously in c# ... I'll eventually try to see if my c# control works in xaml when xaml becomes as mature as flex. leblanc [at] tamu [dot] edu ria’s make php a viable option again.

i’ll like to take a look at your graph editing project… is it publicly viewable?

I think the web is already too cluttered with Flash debris that tend to slow down the user experience. This really reads more like a paid advertisement than a technical article.

Alas I should have realised the capital letter in the title was significant.

If we did the project again we'd just use HTML, CSS and Javascript, together with limited use of Flex's open source competitor OpenLaszlo where we really needed some client side functionality (eg graph editing).
