humm, i have always heard the opposite and while laszlo has some cool things, it's still lagging IMO.
" I however have yet to see an example of a Flex application that rivals Laszlo" I have yet to see a laszlo app outside of the examples that was anything eye catching at all or even user friendly or take advantage of the current capabilities of the flash player or platform. btw~ tell earthilnik to get off their ass and refund my almost $300 they "mistakenly" charged me and were supposed to refund me a year ago, glad to see they can take unauthorized money from customers and not give it back and instead give it u, haha (bastards)!!!! ~Dave the disruptor~ "A criminal is a person with predatory instincts who has not sufficient capital to form a corporation." ---------------------------------------- From: John Olmstead <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Sent: Thursday, August 11, 2005 2:33 PM To: CF-Talk <cf-talk@houseoffusion.com> Subject: Re: Open Lazlo vs. Flex > Laszlo also doesnt support the same type of customization especially > with components that flex does so if you need a completely custom or > fitting look then flex is the choice. As software engineer and a member of the team that built Earthlink's new Laszlo based web mail product (now in Beta), I can say that this statement is absolutely incorrect. Earthlink wanted a look-and-feel entirely their own, so every component in the application was customized specifically for the product. Since all Laszlo components are open source and defined in the Laszlo language, they can be easily re-skinned, customized, or extended. Defining your own custom components from scratch is also not only possible, but fairly straight forward given the powerful capabilities of the Laszlo language. Having never used Flex, I can't speak to its capabilities. I however have yet to see an example of a Flex application that rivals Laszlo.
