In this module, you will learn how to create a simple rich Internet application (RIA) that retrieves and displays photos from the Flickr API based on user-supplied keywords. To build this application you will use Flex Builder, pre-built Flex components, and the Flex HTTP service.
The following application is an embedded SWF file created by using Flex Builder; it is not a screen shot. Type a search term, like "Adobe," into the text box and click the Submit button to retrieve and display photo data from the Flickr API.
