I was trying to teach myself flex, so I decided to write a widget that collects user input and uses SOAP calls to insert into vtiger. My particular use was to replace joomla CMS contact function. You can view the working widget @ my site, www.ignitemediahosting.com under contact us and view the tutorial on how to create the widget, just search for flex @ my site.

Hi brianla,

Having Flex Webform is an interesting idea. I would be happy if you can share the flex scripts, executable, small writeup on using it, as a project on http://forge.vtiger.com.

Regards,

I will be sure to do that. I think I need to modify the FLEX code to read the vtiger URL from an outside XML config file before a distribute would be usable to anyone. Thats why I posted the tutorial and my source code. Also anyone that is looking for Joomla and vtiger integration might find it useful since it removes any PHP library dependency.

just wondering why you would use flash vs regular html/php that supports 100% of users? What advantages to you get?

ppvd + flex = 3d forms & interfaces html could never do that.

For Flex there are not any real advantages over any other technologies, ie AJAX/javascript. I wanted to build something using FLEX because it has a SOAP wizard built right into the IDE. Its pretty powerful and I imagine others will see what I have done with it and extend upon that. One could probably build a whole new interface in an AIR app and run the UI on the desktop. that would be cool.
