First, let me begin by saying that I'm a newbie and if it wasn't for this
forum I'd have given up on Cold Fusion long ago... so thank you all for your
assistance. As a result, I have become committed to learning and promoting
Cold Fusion primarily because of the web community support and
responsiveness it is unprecedented even by other Macromedia product
communities! An application can be great (of which I'm learning Cold Fusion
is) but the community is what makes it successful!
OK, with that being said... I'm having quite a bit of confusion with this
Cold Fusion MX XML Webservice task. Here's what I want to do:
Step 1: Create HTML FORM with check boxes and email address area (required
field) for user to submit (Subscribe).
Step 2: Upon completion and user pressing Submit (Subscribe), the form info
is processed into an XML file named "alert_subscription.xml"
Step 3: This new XML file is then sent to another server via the HTML FORM
POST to then be processed into their data structure.
I've purchased several books CFMX Bible, Mastering CFMX, Forta's Application
Development... and have concluded that the answer lies somewhere with using
either <CFXML> or XMLNew().
Below is my Step 1 but don't know how to write the code for CFMX to process
the other Steps 2 & 3. There is some javascript in there and I'll include
that in another post if requested. Please help!
Thanks in advance for your help!

Here is what a successful XML submission should look like:
