Re: [fw-mvc] Using Zend_Amf and Flex in Zend framework

Hmmm seems like a nice idea. I thought of using MVC because of following
scenario:

The screens I have developed in Flex would be sending Http requests. I want
to handle those requests in my controllers where I would be normally
processing requests if I had been using html templates. Then, controllers
would transact data with models and send back data to Flex files.

That's where I am confused. I would be needing Zend_Amf to fetch the data
from request sent by Flex and send back a response. So it seems Zend_Amf
should be put in controllers, right?

Am I going the right way?

Thanks and Regards
