Customer Reviews

I enjoyed reading this book

I am an experienced PHP programmer and use object oriented programming methods. I found this book to be a quick read and gave me enough of the basics that I can build anything I need. I'm certainly not ready to do an entire web site using Flash Player, but this is nice for creating small components. I'm seriously thinking about creating some user forms with Flex so I don't get inconsistent user experience from one browswer to another. I use a lot of JavaScript, which makes Flex a good choice because ActionScript is so similar to JavaScript. This book must have been written with someone like me in mind, because I thoroughly enjoyed it.
