AMFPHP Flex Guestbook

Flex GuestbookWould like to present you the first beta release of my Flex Guestbook. A week ago I’ve started to write a tutorial on creating a full featured paging, but ended up in a more complex example.

The application is tied with amfphp services which so far can return comments and insert them, the client part formats and displays posts, has a paging feature and of course a simple form to insert your data. At this point I stoped, to show the work in progress, so you could help me to define what other features I can add. Of course, there should be an admin part to moderate the content. But should it be an external app, or be right there in guestbook? Should there be multiple administators/moderators with different access level? Or maybe something is wrong or uncomfortable in existing version?

Would really like to hear any suggestions, meanwhile feel free to test the FGuestbook demo.
After getting some feedback, I’ll finish this project and open-source it.

As all my other projects it’s build on PureMVC framework, so it should be a good example for pmvc users or those who would like to learn it!

    I think will be cool if You will add smiles,
    language support, and option answer to each post.
    And will be great if You’ll create another version, where all data stored in xml or text file.
    Sorry for my bad english >.<

    Hello!

    The only thing I’ve never seen to be solved, scrolling the content with the mouse scroller. If I wanted to use this guestbook I think, I’ll allow more (maybe 2000) characters to type in, and the scrollable content maybe will grow so high, that I will fed up with the first page, if I have to scroll by click on scrollbar and drag it… over and over again. So, if you want it, and you don’t feel this redundant, please try to extend your code. You mentioned that you lookin’ for some debugger ideas, and I felt essential to add a comment about it. Lookin’ forward for your reply. Aaron.
