In Flex 4.5 and PHP: Creating Data-Driven Applications, author
Drew Falkman shows developers how to integrate Flex applications
with PHP-based data services. The course demonstrates retrieving
XML data from a PHP server with HTTPService, connecting PHP
classes to Flex using the amfPHP, WebOrb and ZendAMF adapters,
and using the PHP data wizards in Flash Builder to save
development time. The course also previews the Zend Studio IDE
bundled with Flash Builder 4.5 for PHP and covers advanced topics
such as setting up Flex mobile projects and changing servers at
run time. Exercise files accompany the course.

* Understanding session management
* Accessing RESTful services
* Customizing service calls by passing parameters
