XMethods is a directory of various web services that are available for
public use. If you search Macromedia.com for web services you'll find
a good deal of stuff about both how to use (consume) them and create
(publish) them. I have to sort of avoid trying to explain them,
because this e-mail would get very long.
This code may, however, get you started:
<cfset wQuote = createObject("webservice",
"http://services.xmethods.net/soap/urn:xmethods-delayed-quotes.wsdl")>
<cfset delayedPrice = wQuote.getQuote("uci")>
<cfoutput>UCI's stock price: #delayedPrice#</cfoutput>
Please note that xMethods may not like you hitting this service on
every load of every page of your intranet, and that you'd want to look
into licensing this or a similar service for use every 15 minutes,
etc.
