On PHPBuilder.com, there's a new article that takes a look at the recently introduced (well, relatively recent) combination of Flex from Adobe and PHP to create rich internet applications.

Unlike HTML and the endless number of limitations it presents, Adobe Flex provides an intuitive environment with a vast number of options. There is a large variety of events and styles that far exceed what is available with custom coding in Javascript and CSS. [...] The purpose of this article is not to familiarize you with Adobe Flex, but to demonstrate its integration with PHP.

They introduce the concept of integration with a simple little script first - a "click me" button that makes "Hello world" appear when clicked. With that knowledge in place, they move to something a little more complex - the creation of a dynamic chart from database information (code included).
