Passing Form Vars to a CFC

Question

I am trying to pass Form variables to a CFC. Yes, the CFC
works being called from Flex, with no arguments, but being new to
Flex I am not sure how to post the values in the form fields back
to the CFC. So my questions are:
1) how do you reference form variables. They are all enclosed
in a form tag, and then by form item tags, I have a variety of
types of inputs
2) How do you pass that information to the cfc? Currently I
am using this code: getSearch.getSearch.send({values:vals});
In an attempt to pass an array full of values to the CFC.
Any help would be great!
Thanks,
Rob

I know exactly where you are coming from...LOL..
I was there too. Here is what you can do to make it easy on
you.
You wrap them in an object.... It is as simple as that.
say that you have multiple form items.
if you are using a data typed object ( I recommend it) you
would do something like this to pass form data to a cfc
// This creates a data typed object called object.
var obj:AS01Phone = new AS01Phone;
//Populate the data typed object with your form data
obj.UserID = Number(userid);
obj.PhoneType = String(_phoneType.selectedItem.KeyValue);
obj.DialCode = Number(_dialCode.selectedItem.DialCode);
// Now send it to the cfc for processing
// [RemoteObject.method(object);]
roPhone.save(obj);
