I know: yet another mortgage application… but to make things more interesting, I used the cool ILOG Elixir gauges to display and enter the principal, monthly payment, rate, and term. No rocket science here, but a nice reminder of what you can do in less than a hundred lines of code.

Click the badge below to install the application:

Please upgrade your Flash Player This is the content that would be shown if the user does not have Flash Player 9.0.115 or higher installed.

Instructions:

  • Move the needle with your mouse to specify the principal, monthly payment, rate, and term.
    If you change the principal, the monthly payment is automatically recalculated.
    If you change the monthly payment, the principal is automatically recalculated to show what that monthly payment can buy you.
  • You can move the widget by dragging the upper area of the top gauges border.
  • You can minimize the widget by double-clicking the upper area of the top gauges border.
  • You can close the widget by right-clicking the application in the task bar or in the dock.

View Source is enabled (right click the application to view and download the source code. You will need to add the ILOG Elixir SWCs to your build path to compile).

Here is also a live browser version… (the AIR version is a lot cooler).

You can now download the source code here.

As a reminder, you can watch a screencast showing the key features of the application here (go full screen for a better viewing experience. Also make sure HD is on).

You must create a Ribbit developer account (free) to be able to use the phone service. Once you have a Ribbit account, click the Options menu item in Salesbuilder and enter your Ribbit user id and password.

You will also need to install the ILog swc if you want to compile the application.
