I’ve finished moving everything over to Wordpress now. I ditched the Flex site I was building because since I started it, I’ve decided to make my site less of a personal site and more of my portal to the Flex/AIR/CF community. Also, since I had started that site, I’ve started to focus on open-source projects, [...]

I’ve finally created the event for those of us that hang out in #coldfusion and #flex, that are going to CFUnited. Many expressed interest in such an event, so let’s do it.

Sometimes you just need to URL encode a string (URLEncodedFormat() in CF, or urlencode() in PHP), and not actually make a HTTP request. Here’s a simple library for you to use, that I wrote for my OAuth actionscript lib.

Over the weekend, I wrote an actionscript library for client implementations of OAuth. It’s currently untested, but I’d love to see a few people help me keep it up to date & bug free, if anyone’s interested.

I just came across <spellcheck:*>>, a neat replacement for the TextArea and RichTextArea components. It provides client-side or server-side spell checking, along with custom dictionaries.
The best part is that it’s donation-ware, so just claim you built it yourself, it took a week, and pass your hourly rate along to the author*. Just don’t send them [...]

I’ve started a series of posts on the Webapper blog called Shan’s Simple Examples. I’ll cover Flex and ColdFusion examples as I help others in the IRC channels #flex (EFNet) and #coldfusion / #cfflex (on DALNet).
Hopefully this will turn into a nice library of quick HOW-TOs for us developers.
See a list of blog postings.

Greetings, AYFABU readers. Welcome to my wonderful little blog about CF, Flex, Tech and life in general. Be sure to catch up on some of my previous posts (there’s not too many of them).
I’ll be adding badges to the blog later today.

There’s a bunch of us Flex developer types who hang out in the #flex IRC channel on EFNet. Y’all should drop by and hang out. It’s a great place to ask questions and learn things before they make their way into blog postings across the interwebs.

So I’m keeping on my New Year’s resolution of getting my butt out into the CF/Flex communities, I’m happy to announce my second open-source project.
StringList is a nice little Actionscript 3 library that allows you to manipulate lists. Modeled after the ColdFusion list functions, it includes the classics like listAppend, listLen and listFindNoCase.
Yes, I know [...]
