Hi James,

Yes indeed, I did create the ActionScript CheatSheets!

I am very happy that they helped you out! That's awesome man! I am really excited about the response that the Flash community has given to the sheets. I have some new ones in the works and I really want to do some more sheets for Flex...

Thanks for the message, it means a lot. Thanks for your support too!

Take care,

Sean

Binding vs Callback...

Hey guys quick question for the performance freaks out there.

In our current application, we have a bunch of translations coming from an xml (chinese, french etc), and we load the translations at the start of the application and then set the appropriate mx:labels text property through the ID names. ie
