I'm building a Flex application that will need run under two different deployment scenarios: First, the application will be hosted on the web. The SWF loads some external resources (images, text) so it requires network access, which is the Flex Builder 3 default build flag "-use-network=true". I don't need to do anything special; it j...

But I don't want to go the Flex route because it's way too top-heavy for the simple widget apps that I need to create. (The payloads often exceed 300k with a Flex app and it can be difficult to control the timeline and animation, etc.) When I Google the ...
