Hi Jonese, I'm the web developer for Avalara.com, which happen to be a CF site.
I've developed a CFX tag that allows me to easily call the AvaTax service for both address validation and sales tax rates. With the Java SDK and a little time you can make a single CFX tag that will return back a query of taxing rates/jurisdictions, etc. I have heard of people skipping the CFX step and loading the necessary classes at the CFM level via object creation / cfscript, but I have not tried that route. The CFX technique appeared more portable, maintainable, and structured. If you've signed up for or used AvaRates Now(tm), that's a CF application hitting the AvaTax web service in the background. This is availabe at www.freetaxrates.com. For additional help feel free to contact me at [EMAIL PROTECTED] Regards, Jon >Has anyone implemented or used the Avalara Tax Web Service inside Coldfusion? > >jonese ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~| Introducing the Fusion Authority Quarterly Update. 80 pages of hard-hitting, up-to-date ColdFusion information by your peers, delivered to your door four times a year. http://www.fusionauthority.com/quarterly Archive: http://www.houseoffusion.com/groups/CF-Talk/message.cfm/messageid:257202 Subscription: http://www.houseoffusion.com/groups/CF-Talk/subscribe.cfm Unsubscribe: http://www.houseoffusion.com/cf_lists/unsubscribe.cfm?user=11502.10531.4
