why not just use a webService, and then only show an error if something is
wrong.?

Subject: Re: [flexcoders] HTTPService Error event
Hi Scott,
I have been through many Flex Tutorials but unfortunately our world lacks of
tutorials for connectivity with ColdFusion. I am an experianced CF developer
but unfortunately I cannot figure out how to proceed with data through Flex and
CF.
Indeed - your way is much easier to write and better to understand than the one
that I have posted. I will keep that one :-) Thanks!
But still... the 'fault' function in the HTTPService tag is always triggered!
Even with your own way.
How can I handle this? All I want is to be able to 'alert' the users that there
is some kind of error (I know how to get the exact error message through the
event handler) but I have no clue how to trigger this function if and only if
there is some kind of problem in my CFM file.
any ideas?
Thanks,
George

George -
I have not seen this syntax for passing request params to an HTTPService. Of
course that doesn't mean it is wrong :) But, here is how I would do it.
Change button definition to
<mx:Button label="Add Employee" click="callServer()"/>
then
public function callServer() :void
{
var params:Object = new Object();
params.firstName = firstName.text;
...
srv.send(params) ;
}

Hi,
I have this code. It works perfect but I would like to get alerted only when I
have some kind of error in my test.cfm file. Instead, the 'errorAlert()'
function always is triggered :(
Any idea's on how to make this work only when I have problems in my test.cfm
file?
