We made a Reader for MXNA in ColdFusion using only Flash Forms. But wait, it's not only an MXNA Reader, you can also read Full As A Goog :)

As part of these series "How to populate a cf[…] with Remoting", I wanted to show how to bring data into a cftree. This is the easiest way, but it has some limitations: your xml data has to have a label attribute and the tree is first closed when it loads. If you want to get around those, you will have to do more work with the data returned from the server (I may do it if I have time :)).

There are two ways, one requires our query to contain the columns “data” and “label”, in which case, when we receive the result, we do the same as the cfgrid example:

The basic difference is that now the ColdFusion component returns a query instead of a string. The important part in the ActionScript code is how we set the data to the datagrid. To show the effect, I create a cfgrid and populate it with an empty query, so that when I call the component, I can see the data loaded.
We had given for granted that it was not possible to use Flash Remoting with ColdFusion Flash Forms because of the ActionScript language restrictions that they have. All workarounds used external .swf loaded into the form, so we never used them and we never investigated any further. Otherwise, we would’ve found that there is a simple way to get remoting in ColdFusion Flash Forms sooner. In any case, here it is, better late than never. Note that this does not use external swf and therefore it is not a hack.
