There are more "standard" approaches when you're on the receiving end of an
XML stream, however. On the receiving end, you're likely to find most people
using Java servlets and an XML parser. We built the synchronization engine
for franklinplanner.com using this technical architecture. fusionOne.com,
with whom we're syncing, uses a similar architecture and so do snap.com, and
other fusionOne partners.
Also, FWIW, we ran into problems trying to use CF to transmit XML to
fusionOne via CFHTTP. It kept putting some header-type information in the
transmissions as I recall, so we gave up on it and wrote the transmission as
a Java servlet as well.

There's no "standard" way of communicating with XML. After all, XML is just
a document. Transmission of such information is usually done by the means
considered most appropriate by the programmer writing the application. I've
sent XML via HTTP GET, HTTP POST, raw sockets, even SMTP.
If you want to send XML via sockets with CF, you'll need to use a custom
tag.

Subject: XML Sending Parsing not WDDX (Java)??
Hi,
I've developed a CF app that when a user hits a page it produces XML that
they can then parse and put on their own site. The XML is just embedded in
the page as either my own "made-up generic" form or WDDX.
So far so good. It works much like moreover.com
But, I've become concerened - Is there another standard way to communicate
XML aside from putting it on a web page or sending it as POST or URL
arguments??
I've heard whispers of XML over it's own socket..... possibly involving Java
???
Is this correct?
If so, obviously CF is limited as it can't access these lower level
functions?
Can anyone recommend an alternative book/site/technology for me to learn
about these things?
Thanks
Ben.
