Hi Andrew, Thanks for the update on the book. I'll add that to my list of must reads. I mean since you taught me CF its only fair I buy one of your books! hahahahaha. And make sure all that money is pouring in for you! And Scott. Not only will I raid your bookshelf but I will raid your fridge too as I know your wife makes yummy food.
As for the OT thingo. The reason I personally wrote it here is because I'm a ColdFusion programmer. So developing FLEX coming from a CF background I thought it would be more appropriate. Barry, you articulate much better then I. Are you a teacher or something :-P!! I Also ran into those issues.
