Hello. Having never done what has been mentioned in the subject. I would like a simple overview of the process.
I'll be using Coldfusion to generate a recordset ( preumably xml ) in order to allow other websites to perform searches against the data we store. My main questions are: (1) Does the client write the forms to be used for searching or do we supply that to them. If we supply it, what formats can be used? ( ie. do we write an xml doc that they must parse to fill in the data ? ) or could they just use inline frames that point to templates on our site? (2) When the data is searched and it is returned ( again, presumably in xml format ). Is it up to the client to format the visuals ( the html code around the recordset, or is something like that generally considered to be the hosts site responsibility? Thanks for any help or direction in this. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~| Logware (www.logware.us): a new and convenient web-based time tracking application.
