What does the value look like if you cfoutput it? Is it a string or an XML string?

It is my understanding that XMLParse() converts a STRING to an XML object. Here's what's interesting. The dump BEFORE and AFTER both look exactly the same. I'm passing in an XML object from flex, dumping it, running XMLParse() on it, and dumping it again. The dumps look exactly the same - they are both of type "xml document". They're even of the same java class: reportInput.getClass().getName() = org.apache.xerces.dom.DeferredDocumentImpl reportXML.getClass().getName() = org.apache.xerces.dom.DeferredDocumentImpl But apparently, the XMLParse() is still needed.. though I can't tell what it does!
