macromedia flash flash remoting:
Hi all, I have to say I have had one of the most frustating weeks ever.......
I am a mid level flash programmer and ASP too, I want to start using
Coldfusion w flash remoting, and/or Flash to conect to databases and so. I just
got the Coldfusion MX 7 Web application construction Kit by Ben Forta to start
ilustrating my self.

When trying to start working with Flash Remoting, I have been reading
tutorials, examples, example code, forums, exchange and all there is to read
and I can not figure it out.

I have flash professional 8: When I download and start reading ANY of the
tutorials from MM I open the fla file and when testing I get an error message:

**Error** Scene=Scene 1, layer=Actions, frame=1:Line 4: Error opening include
file NetServices.as: File not found.
#include "NetServices.as"

I read the forums, and I can't find a straight answer on how to make it work,
which then stops me from continuing reading the tutorials. For what I get this
tutorials were ment for Flash MX 2004 and there is a new aproach for this, but
No info found.

On the other hand when in Coldfusion I can?t make the gateway test to work.

teway/</a>
I get an error page, and can't find anywhere a solution on how to fix the
problem.

I'm using Win XP Pro
IIS 5.1
Studio 8
Coldfusion 7 with the updater 7.01

I also want to mention <a target=_blank class=ftalternatingbarlinklarge
href="http://www.asfusion.com/">http://www.asfusion.com/</a> as a GREAT site
for coldfusion and flash remoting, BUT it seems to advanced for someone trying
to start learning this technics.

If there is anyone who knows a good starting point site, it would be GREATLY
appreciated.

Hi, NetServices.as is now deprecated and you can find the new way by doing the
following:

Hit F1 in the program and look in the book: Using Flash Remoting MX 2004 >
Using Flash Remoting Actionscript > Calling service functions > Calling service
functions overview

Also, make sure you download and install the remoting components for Flash 8
here: <a target=_blank class=ftalternatingbarlinklarge

Also,">http://www.adobe.com/products/flashremoting/downloads/components/

Also,</a> have you tried using the url <a target=_blank
class=ftalternatingbarlinklarge
href="http://:8500</b>/flashservices/gateway]http://localhost<b>:8500</b>/flashs
ervices/gateway">http://localhost[b</a> ? The :8500 part depends on your
server configuration. If you're using the integrated Coldfusion server, it
should be 8500.
