Part II: Server Side, JavaScript, and Flash: Oh My!
The client main script just instantiates an object of type RemoteColorSelector . The class takes as an
argument the id value of the placeholder element on the page.
class Main
{
public static function main()
{
new RemoteColorSelector(???colorinput???);
}
}
The class constructor creates the container for the list of filtered colors, known in the code as tags , and the
color sample area. The input control is enhanced with a key - up event. Each time the control has the focus
and the keyboard is used, the update() method checks if a new list must be loaded, refreshes the list of
visible tags and eventually the selected color.
