by Matthew PizziMacromedia Flash is the key to designing and delivering low-bandwidth animations, presentations, and Web sites. It offers scripting capabilities and server-side connectivity for creating engaging applications, Web interfaces, and training courses. Of the 250,000 registered Flash users, half of them are developers. Now tha Allaire and macromedia have merged, this next version of Flash will integrate much better with ColdFusion.
While Flash can display and manipulate data in a browser, this capability is much more powerful when coupled with an application server. By providing database connectivity and a server-side scripting environment, application servers allow you to dynamically generate the content or data that will be displayed using Flash. As a result, you can keep the content on your site up to date more easily as well as deliver a much more intuitive, application-like front-end to yoru dynamic applications.
The majority of this book will cover those high-end topics, providing a solid reference for developers.
