I don't know why this myth is perpetuating. I've written simple c# code to loop through a query returned from a CF webservice. It was based on something I found with Google and I see others have since blogged the same solution:
http://www.firemoss.com/blog/index.cfm?mode=entry&entry=3A325BDD-E081-2BAC-695618079678B316 PHP should be straightforward too. The "issue" is that there isn't a single native object that corresponds to a CF querybean type. So what? Looping through the array that a querybean represents is just a tiny bit more work. Write a function to do it and it's fixed forever. On 3/23/07, Jeff Small <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > Okay, so I write a CFC.
