INTRODUCTION

This book started out as an update to my first book on Flash and XML. Originally, the idea was to update the content with the changes to XML in ActionScript 3.0. However, when it came to drafting the table of contents, I realized that there was a whole audience of Flex developers who would also benefit from a book about XML and ActionScript 3.0. Hence, this book was born!

So, my plan is for this book to cater to both audiences: Flash designer/developers and Flex developers. I've included common code approaches, as well as topics that are specific to each package. I've tried to show readers how to achieve the same XML results in both software packages.
