So for the last three weeks or so I have been reading "Adobe Flex 2 Training from the Source". I've also been watching the Flex 2 training videos from Lynda.com and I must say there great. Since I started learning web development I have always stayed away from Flash, I not a graphics guy so when I started learning to develop web application I never though I would need Flash. That's for the designer guys I would always say, then Flash introduced ActionScript, yet another reason for me to stay away. Now here it is years and years later and now I have to learn ActionScript 3.

Well at least I have a strong background in web applications, my OOP is weak but with my books, videos, and the occasional email to some Flex Developers I'm moving forward. I have also been reading up on CFC's as they are a big part of the Flex integration.

So the last week I have been reading "Adobe Flex 2 Training from the Source". I have my Advanced ColdFusion training at the end of May, and want to get through this book before I go. I am on Chapter 5 and ran into a problem.

While working on an AS 3 script I was getting an error when I would compile my code. The book for those that don't know about it is simple a step by step guide to creating a Flex app and explains all the features and components of Flex along the way. A great book for getting your feet wet with Flex 2.0.
