Flex and dynamically generated HTML

Former Member — Thu, 10 Jan 2008 15:43:32 GMT

Hi,

I have a requirement to bring a flex-based ui into an existing web application that uses dynamically generated server-side html. Does flex allow user interface elements to be generated on the fly?

Is there a way to describe what is generated in a text-based language? This is because we are currently generating the html on the server side using xsl, and it's important that we keep this functionality...

Thanks!

Hi Charlie,

it sounds to me like you need to look at the Flex-Ajax Bridge. See details at http://labs.adobe.com/wiki/index.php/Flex_Framework:FABridge

Also you might be interested in FLOB. Look at http://code.google.com/p/flob/

In fact if you are experienced with building BSP applications then start with FLOB first.

Cheers
