Introduction To Part 3 - Custom Login Form Component

When I finished part 2 of this project, I had successfully connected my Flex application to the ColdFusion backend. Now I could finally get to work on designing the actual login form of my Flex application. My initial design question was how should I build the login form? I could include all the mxml and action script in the same application that will be used for the newsletter or I could design a custom login form component. I decided to design a custom login form component since I could then reuse the login form in other applications. Also, while I'm designing the custom login form component, other developers could be working on the main newsletter application.
