Powerful applications require solid back ends. This book shows how to hook up a Flex application to PHP back-end systems such as Drupal and OpenAds.

    Book was shipped quickly, securely packaged, and better than the pictures. Great value for an addition to my encyclopedia. Seller responded quickly and sent over additional photos upon request. Would absolutely buy from seller again.

    Ordered Naomi book, the condition of both books is/was great. I am a collector and fan, so this was a deal, as others were selling this at ridiculous prices. I was also surprised the large pink Naomi box was included, and wasn’t expecting it. Quality, as described, quick delivery. Would shop this seller again.
