Do you have to have a Flex license to use MXML or MXMLC (the command line AS3/MXML compiler)?

No, you don't. The Flex SDK is free, and includes the MXMLC compiler which can compile an MXML source file into a Flash (.swf) file. 24.5.179.225 07:08, 9 December 2006 (UTC)[reply]

"'drill-down' through an object". Is "drill down" a standard expression ? I haven't seen it before. How about replacing it by "accessing the object properties/fields" ? Fabricebaro (talk) 18:02, 19 December 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Yes, "drill down" is standard terminology, and no, "accessing the object properties/fields" does NOT mean the same thing. Drilling down through an object implies going through many layers of links/pointers/references/subobjects, whatever they're called, eventually accessing the actual properties/fields/data at the end of the chain of dereferencing. 76.243.129.217 (talk) 18:09, 19 January 2010 (UTC)[reply]

MXML example

The MXML example here is not very good and shows Java programming style instead of MXML programming style. Cannot anybody provide a better example?! --217.24.201.180 (talk) 16:57, 19 February 2010 (UTC)[reply]

This might be a better example:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<mx:Application xmlns:mx="http://www.adobe.com/2006/mxml">
   <mx:Style>
      LinkButton {
         font-size: 14;
         text-decoration: underline;
         color: #004488;
      }
      Canvas {
         background-color: #ffffff;
      }
   </mx:Style>
   <mx:Script>
      <![CDATA[
         import flash.net.navigateToURL;

         protected function reloadRss():void {
