商品描述
The potential uses for Flash Remoting are endless. Flash Remoting: The Definitive Guide will help you understand this breakthrough technology and use it to build your own Rich Internet Applications (RIAs). Build applications that connect to a database, file system, or other server-side technologies. Or, use Flash Remoting to create:
- online stores that feature catalogs and shopping cart systems
- sound and video clip libraries
- banner ads with built-in shopping carts, click-through tracking, and site
search capabilities
- new controls that can be used in place of HTML
- extensions to Flash, Dreamweaver, Fireworks, and more
- front-ends to databases for administrators
The book begins with Flash Remoting basics: setup, installation and an
introduction to its underlying concepts. Next, you'll explore the Flash's User
Interface components as they relate to Flash Remoting. Then, you'll gain
insights into Flash Remoting internals and the Remoting API. The book is rich
with examples that you will be able to run on your own system.
The next
section focuses on the server-side environment that you'll use for your
applications. Individual chapters cover Flash Remoting with ColdFusion,
Server-Side ActionScript, Java, ASP.NET, and PHP.
The last section
covers more advanced Flash Remoting techniques, such as calling web services
from Flash Remoting, extending objects and UI controls, best practices, and
debugging. Plus there is a detailed chapter demonstrating a real-world
application. The book concludes with a Flash Remoting API reference.
Developers who are looking to create Rich Internet Applications with
Flash will find Flash Remoting: The Definitive Guide indispensable.
