Customer Reviews & Comments
This book by the star of Macromedia Ben Forta, and his crew of co-authors is perhaps the first of its kind to highlight the many business uses for Flash integration. It is refreshing to see a new point of view that highlights applications which are more than just the Skip-Intro's that have made Macromedia's Flash infamous. While the book's focus is not a coding reference, it does expertly diagram methods for successful implementations of real world rich user interface applications. If you have ever wondered how to create a database driven web application that acts like a website, but performs like a true rich UI application, Reality ColdFusion MX is for you. With this offering, Forta assumes that the reader has already been introduced to both Flash and ColdFusion. Instead the reader is presented with a more intricate discussion about integrating these two complimentary and recently co-branded software packages. Many of the new features introduced in the MX versions of Flash and ColdFusion (CFC's, Flash Remoting, Flash components, and Shared Objects) are described in depth throughout the book. Reality ColdFusion MX is divided into four sections, each based on its own Flash application (media player, expense reporter, instant messenger, and email client). The development process is shown in its entirety from the point of view of a real world consulting engagement (where frequently time and budget dictate the planning process more than the actual requirements do). Forta expertly recounts real life experiences while highlighting the most powerful new features of Flash and ColdFusion MX. This book is for coders and architects that are ready to delve into the world of using Flash as a dynamic user interface. The focus here is not on how to do a motion tween across the timeline, it is understanding how to properly separate presentation from function, while rapidly creating an application that can change the way business is done on the web. Kudos to Forta and the gang for teaching us the future of Flash MX as a business tool that can be used side-by-side with ColdFusion MX for powerful presentations of server side applications. I highly recommend this book to anyone who develops applications for the web.
