So I had a little extra time this weekend to work on some flash stuff so I createD a newsletter sign up form.  Which brings me to this point,  one of the things that attracts me to Flash so much is that I can easily customize the look and feel of anything I work on really easily. You have to love the Flash IDE, thats all I am saying.  Some of the features that I programmed into this sign up form that I would like to point out are:

1. Use of the “Enter” key with the keylistener function to make it more user friendly
2. Tab indexing functionality also to make it more user friendly
3. Error detection on the input field for those users who are retarded (basically it won’t take any input that is not a valid email address)

I am all about user friendliness, and  I will get more into that at some point.  There is a really simple PHP script that goes along with this, and for right now it just sends the email address the user inputs to a certain email address (right now it just sends it to my email). At some point, I would like for the input to be put directly into a database but thats for later.
