Macromedia Flex Apps

OMNOVA Solutions - Design Center

Active Dashboard

Here are a couple of Flex apps we've built so far. My co-worker is a Flash/Flex genious, he built all the front end stuff. I mainly built the back end. The data is all pulled using .NET web services and SQL server databases. I think they turned out pretty well. Our biggest problem initially was figuring out how to make Flex read in the data from the web service. We eventually learned that the results set had to be structured as an array of objects. In the future I think we'll be using Coldfusion to write the web service and CFC's. It's a lot simpler :)
