Actionscript 3.0 is much more powerful than its previous versions. Does this mean that I can start using it as my sole server-side language? can it connect to the database just like coldfusion or php? What is it that it can't do on the server-side?
Thanks
It runs on the client, that's why it is client side code. Save this answer.
There are a number of languages for client-side scripting. JavaScript is by far the most popular, but ActionScript, DART and VBScript are also used.
You can use JavaScript for both client-side and server-side scripting.
Short answer: NO, ActionScript 3 is client-side, since Flash is client-side technology.
Long answer: Haxe
