Ok I've discovered what I think is the root of the problem. I have got the cfc to do a dump of the arguments scope into a cfsavecontent tag and pass that back. When the component is called locally it passes back my orginal xml request. However when I call it as a webservice I get back what looks like a java class named object of org.apache.xerces.dom.DeferredDocumentImpl
This means that any operations I perform on this object fail as it is no longer an xml object. Is this a bug with Coldfusion, or should it be doing this for some reason? Surely I can't be the only person that wants to feed a cfc xml via a webservice, or can I? I'm running CF8.01 on IIS, so if it is a bug there's probably not a lot I can do. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~| Want to reach the ColdFusion community with something they want?
