“Collect All” To Make Professional Mobile Application in Flash Lite 1.1 Enable Device

[marlopax]

This will be a free online discussion of making a professional mobile application with all the aspect needed for a successful application, ready to go to the client and to the users. Or you can say a tutorial with everything to built up a professional mobile application.
What ever experience you have or not in the programming or designing, we will discus in detail in-depth of every issue from both users and client point of view. We will discus every bits of method and tricks with real world scripting and all other languages associated with Flash Lite 1.1. (ColdFusion, CGI ASP, PHP, or Perl script, MySQL database .txt file etc).

So let’s start:
As a matter of small size screen, little processing speed and limited memory space, Flash Lite can play a very good role in front-end and can handle dynamic objects. Programs that are object oriented.
There are many articles about Why Flash Lite? But here, Why Flash Lite 1.1?
The answer is very simple, this discussion is “from the beginning to the end” of mobile application in flash. And from Flash Lite 1.1 Adobe started to fight with mobile market with other programming languages, and the flash developer got a chance to explore there intellect to a new professional world.

What Flash Lite 1.1 can do, and what other languages can help?
You will need to know what this little player can do, and what task will we give to do in a small device. Actually you will find in latter discussion How to handle a total application project. Flash Lite 1.1 has all the features that a professional platform need. The question is how to handle it. If you are new to flash then read the entire discussion of every issues, either you can skip those you know. Basically I use Flash only to handle the front-end programming and user interface. Thanks to Adobe to built such a platform which can able to handle external languages from device and also from the server. You also need to know what the other languages can help to build a Flash Lite Application. As like a web base application which reflects in a browser through html tags, are totally depends on server side languages and the browser capabilities with the help of many plugins. Actually the front-end of a web application interact with the users by the help of back-end programming languages. So, to make an application on mobile with Flash Lite you can just depend on the server side programming with the dynamic interactivity capabilities and power of Flash Lite.
What an Application Need?
1. Text Information.
2. Pictures.
3. Sound.
4. Video.
5. Security.
6. Validation.
7. Popularity.
8. Interactivity.
9. And obvious the Money.
So if this is the basic need of a user then Flash Lite cannot build the total application without the help of some other programs. To fulfill the above need of an application you need a space where you store all the stuffs which all users can interact with it. Mean you have to have a server space along with a domain name. That is not enough. To make an organized application which can interact faster with users you also need an organized storage to keep all the information or data for your application. That means a Database which holds the data. Flash Lite cannot handle database directly as it is not a server side program. So you also need a server side language support for your Flash Lite application. As I mentioned earlier, Flash Lite can reads data from an external file, such as a text file or text generated by a ColdFusion, CGI ASP, PHP, or Perl script. A .txt file extension is not a programming language but other which mentioned above are the language by which you can interact with Flash Lite by passing information and get a result as it send.
To build an application you need:
1. Flash.
2. Server space with a domain name.
3. A database support.
4. A server side language support.
