Today I have been working on getting an accounting application written in CFML to talk to a remote QuickBooks Installation.
This required me to install a Com object which acts as a server on the remote machine that takes requests and returns responses. The requests and responses are in XML. I have this part working. What I need to do is to be able to send a request to the ASP page on the remote machine and return a response from the ASP page to my CF Server here locally. All problems would be solved if I could install CFMX on the remote machine, but because of problems with the contract I'm unable to. So I have to use ASP. My ASP works by hard coding the request XML in the file itself and sending that request to the com object which then returns to me a ASP variable that holds the response XML packet. Could someone give me some ideas as to how to send a request and return a response from that ASP page? I was thinking of using URL vars, but I think that URL vars are limited to a certain amount of characters. If so, I can't do that because the response can be very large depending on the data that I request.
