Hi Guys,

The site will be hosted on a Windows server, and will quite heavily us .NET components, so putting it onto a linux server isn't really an option.

The problem I am quite simply having is that I find flash remoting confusing. I have been working with actionscript for about 3 years now, and understand it fully. I just don't understand how to form packets and transfer them between flash and the remoting software. The only programming I have ever done is in actionscript so I really don't know any other language which I guess makes it more difficult.

I have looked at OpenAMF however it doesn't run on Windows. I didn't understand the purpose of FlashOrb. I could potentially have individual asp files sent up for the data transfer however that is pretty time consuming and I would use company resources. That is why I was looking at Flashlink solutions Emissary product. Looks fairly easy, and I tried the demo of the product. I was able to get data transferring pretty easily. But I kinda hoping for an opinion from an expert on it. I doesn't really look like it is mainstream software as I really can't find much information about it. Has it been around long? Is it like flash remoting?

I may just bite the bullet and purchase a copy to give it a shot. Its only $50 but... Well... I am cheap (grin) But if anyone has any opinions/ideas, please let me know. I have a couple days before it is required.

Regards,
Al
