Coldfusion flash form failed loading data. The error we got is [Flash Remoting MX]->Request received was not Flash-based (not of the binary AMF protocol)." Please advise! Thanks!

    I really dislike being a downer on this, but most (if not all) CF developers that I know or communicate with do not use Flash forms.

    Part of the reason, I think, had to do with a conflict that was instigated from a lawsuit that Microsoft lost; they set up tight security in Internet Explorer that would require a user to "click" within the area of a Flash form in order to activate it and actually use it.  That turned a lot of users (and developers) off to the idea.

    Also, Flash forms are kind of a pain to develop.

    There are other reasons why, but that's the gist of it.  Again, I hate to be a downer, but the best advice I can give you is "don't use Flash forms".

    HTH,
