Now

I can build my training calendar using this handy tool. Of

course, I can put an application such as this in any web page

just like any other Flash movie. It’s self-contained and ready to

go.

A Simple Image Viewer

Web 2.0 is all about the media; images and video. So, it’s a

good thing that Flex makes it so easy to build Flash applications

that use heaping helpings of both. I’ll start by building a very

simple image viewer that can look at a set of canned images

(see Example 6-3).

Example 6-3. Pictures.mxml

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>

<mx:Application xmlns:mx="http://www.adobe.com/2006/mxml"

layout="horizontal"

horizontalAlign="left">

<mx:Array id="images">

<mx:String>megan2.jpg</mx:String>

<mx:String>megan3.jpg</mx:String>

<mx:String>megan4.jpg</mx:String>
