Ok - so I've spent months on this really cool Flex app,
everything works to this point, and I know what I want to do next,
but can't find anywhere on the net that will describe how to do it.
I have a ColdFusion website, and one of the pages will serve
up the lovely .swf all that i've made. The problem is: how to I
pass variables from the ColdFusion site (because it knows who you
are logged in as) to the Flex application (because it needs to
write to a database based on who you are, but it doens't know who
you are).
At this point, I have two folders on my server - on for the
coldfusion site, and one that I've developed my Flex app in, and
I've been inserting the .swf file into my CF page, so it plays the
movie, but I can't figure out how to pass a variable around.
And, do all my .mxml and .as files need to be in the same
directory as my CF pages for everyone to play nice?? I thought I
had done so well to create the app, but now I don't know how to get
it out to the people who need it!
Thanks in advance (I have also posted this in the Flex
forums, hoping someone somewhere will have an answer!)
