QUERYING - A database with Flash Remoting

Topaz · 07-18-2003, 10:15 AM

Hi everyone, just wondering if any one could point me in the direction of querying a database within action script, im using flash remoting and coldfusion, and have a cfc that does the main query and brings back say a table, but how do i say list all the fields that are in a certain category without having to write it into the cfc, and just do it in the actionscript.

Cheers everyone.

You'll get better luck with an answering if you ask in the backend/remoting forum. The moderator will probably move this to that forum anyway.

Provisionally, though, there are a million ways to do that. You could loop through all the records and create the records visually. Or you could use the DataGlue stuff and put the records into a listbox. How exactly do you want to display the records?
