I have been playing with this web service. I have found that I have had to make sure any server I've used this on had the 6.1 updater applied. Ultimately I would like to use this on our shared hosted server. The initial tests I've done have not worked. But when contacted, the host says their server is completely updated.
Can somebody point out the exact hot fix that solved whatever the root problem was with using web services such as this? -------------- Ian Skinner Web Programmer BloodSource www.BloodSource.org Sacramento, CA "C code.
