I just did this myself today, so here is
my solution:
In the file html-template/index.template.html

In my case, the parameter I add to my Flex

Hi,
I am not sure if I understand your
situation, but I guess that you have a webservice that returns a list of
records, but the structure of the records can be different per webservice
operation, right?
Could you show us how the XML looks that
you receive from the webservice
True.
But the processing of the XML is only part
of a request. If a certain query itself takes 5 seconds to complete, you can do
your best in the remoting part of the transaction, but it will not bring you much.
