Flex Gets Advanced CSS

I'm surprised this hasn't already made it to insideria.com yet... last week, Adobe published an updated design spec for CSS in the Flex framework

The next version of Flex will support more advanced CSS styles for components. It will support descendant style declarations, instance style declarations, class styles, etc... This is a welcome change, and a great step for creating more reusable styles in Flex applications.

You can read more about it here:

You can download the latest Gumbo alpha release of Flex and test it out for yourself here:
