A new video in the “Developing for Flash Lite” series has just been posted – “OOP Architecture for Flash Mobile Applications“.
Object Orientated Programming (OOP) is going to become more relevant, and required, for Flash mobile developers once Flash Player 10 and AS3 (plus AIR and Flex) arrive on the mobile platform. ActionScript 3 requires that you use a class-based OOP methodology, and for many Flash Lite developers who have been happily living with AS2, this is the time to start getting into it. In this episode, I walk through extracting code from the timeline and placing it into classes, and some of the things you might encounter along the way (the Delegate class, etc).
Links to all the videos in this series can be found on my Training page, on the Adobe Flash Lite Vimeo homepage, and soon through Adobe TV. Don’t forget you can subscribe the RSS feed on Vimeo for updates, or follow @flashmobile on Twitter.

Hello Dale,
I am fresher who tries to work in mobile commerce and trying to design a mobile version sites .I saw your video tutorials,and your site.I am impressed.Could you tell me where should I start ,what softwares must be known.What are all the things that I should learn?
Looking forward for your kind reply.Thnk You..
If you’re developing mobile websites, then really you an be using all of the tools you normally use for web development (e.g. Dreamweaver or other HTML editors) but obviously code using mobile-browser supported CSS and HTML. Various mobile browsers render differently, just like different desktop browsers, so you generally need to include (IMHO) some device detection into your script to use either different pages or different CSS depending on what device and browser are being used. Depending on what the site is doing too, you could also look at building sites based on platforms such as Wapple (www.wapple.net) which do all of the cross-browser / device detection (and even m-commerce) for you as part of the packages you can buy from them. Just some ideas to get you started anyway. Feel free to ping me on email if you have further questions and I’ll see if I can help at all.
Thnk you Dale,
I like to try things as you mentioned.I have a plan to do mobile a site using Dreamweaver,and device central.So I know I can write Xhtml to present but what about the database connectivity. How it can be connected to database?Where I must write PHP files?
Could you please send me your mail id ?
