Ok I have recently started to program in a new language that has recently become popular called Flex. It is made by the Adobe people. Now I know this is an xml newsgroup and not a Flex newsgroup but I am just explaining it to clear things up. Well one of the things Flex does is when you write a flex page it seems to use xml. Apparantly the code is embedded in some xml. I guess I was wondering if it would be difficult to put the code in to a webpage that is on a server. If this does not clear things up please say so.
