Andrew Alderson Flash, Flex and Beyond

I recently ran into a problem with a drawing application I am working on. It wasn’t a major problem but I am sure someone else will run into it. The problem is with sending ByteArray's through WebORB as a parameter or a variable in a ValueObject.

After my first article on WebOrb and dates in PHP I ran into another problem when sending dates from Flex to a PHP class through WebORB. This time it was a date that was sent as a property of a Value Object and not a parameter of the method. I finally decided it was time to figure this out once and for all.

This is a problem that I have ran into in the past but never really investigated it. This problem has 2 parts - the first comes from sending a Date object from Flex through WebORB for PHP and then using that date in a sql query and the second comes from pulling a date from a MySQL table in PHP and returning it to Flex.
