At last I have my final setup up and running. My trusty old laptop will function as webserver. The rest of the things you need can be found in the rest of this post.

on the server side, you will need to get something that can talk to flash. I found a couple of alternatives like Flash Remoting.Net when you are using an .Net enabled server or ordinary Flash Remoting if you are using a coldfusion enabled server.

Since i couldn’t get both of them to work. I am going to use the open source PHP alternative AMFPHP which will probably work just as well as the ones mentioned above. If not….well we’ll just find out won’t we ;).

The next thing which is a must-have, is the newest version of the free Flash Remoting components provided by Macromedia. This will enable your flash authoring tool to talk to your webserver. If you need them, you can get them from the Macromedia site, or from this server.

Finally, the guys from amfphp gave a link to another set of small components ,which i haven’t yet discoverd the use for, but what the hey. Let’s get those too.

This should be all you need to start building your first Rich Internet Application……nice ;)
