What are ASForms?

ASForms is a group of Flash ‘form’ components designed to replace the buggy and bloated Adobe components. In other words radio buttons, drop down menus, text inputs etc. They are very light weight and snappy.

Can you skin them?

ASForms has been designed to resemble html form elements. Changing the colours, and fonts of ASForms is very easy. However changing the shapes requires further hacking. This is because ASForms has been designed to be fast and lightweight so the code bloat added by a full featured skinning engine has been omitted. If you want a fully skinnable set then you should check out some of the other component sets out there.

Are they fast to render?

Yes. One of the requirements of ASForms was that they would be very snappy.

Are they MTASC compliant?

Of course! All code has been developed in a AMES environment using a strict MTASC setting.

Are they Open Source?

ASForms are released under the GPL MIT.

Why don’t they do this or that?

ASForms are simple and light weight. If you want something more full featured then check out ASWing or some of the other open source component sets.

Whats up with the commenting?

I used a auto commenting java program to fill everything out and I haven’t finished making it all pretty yet!?!?
