However I'm hitting a wall when it comes to web services that return anything but a String when using the Mozilla SOAP api.
Does anybody have any experience with the Mozilla SOAP api?
I'm afraid not...just with JSON. The Chemical Blogspace with Quotes user script communicates with CB using JSON, where a javascript object is returned as a string. This is then evaluated ('eval') to yield the Javascript object, a dictionary in this case. The good thing about this is that it's easy to do and lightweight. The bad thing is that it is not well known outside of Javascript, although according to http://www.json.org/, parsers are available for every language under the sun. If you could give an example of a SOAP webserver with nice documentation, I could have a go if this would help.
