Flex, AJAX and the FA Bridge | June 22nd, 2006
Well lots going on this week at EBA. Dave, Alexei and I are here in San Francisco but I wanted to get our new Flex/AJAX Dashboard Demo. It now uses EBA Grid V3, Flex Charting, the FA Bridge to tie it all together and all this sits in a ColdFusion page. Pretty neat mix of technologies working together here. As the Adobe marketing folks would say, “Go Beyond AJAX with Flex”…whatever that means;-)
You can now view and download the application. So send us your feedback. Little warning though, this is demo code so keep in mind it mind seem a bit hacked, but we know that. But go nuts and play around with it.
Big thanks to Alexei and our “AJAX Padawan” co-op Agus! You guys really busted your ass to get this done for the summit! Thanks!
NOTE: you need Flash Player 9 to view the Flex Chart and demo.

[…] It’s probably a sign that the internet space is hotter than Hansel right now, especially when you consider this event takes place in the middle of August! I think they just decided to do this in an interview with David Mendels not too long ago, wild. I’m going to track someone down there to try to get Dave on the speaker list to talk about how to use the FA Bridge to integrate Flex and AJAX. Reading blog posts about the when not to use Flex make me realize that the real adoption of Flex is likely going to be incrementaly. And I would think Adobe should be getting developers to adopt the platform anyway they can…1×1 pixel swf go for it! Whatever you want, just get people using it! Anyway I love the energy and buzz in the industry, I just hope we can all sustain it. […]

That’s pretty cool. The background image tiles though so it looks a bit weird on high resolutions.
