Not odd at all....WSDLs are in XML, but don't confuse WSDL format with input/output formats
It's like saying because CF is Java that it must output Java....which of course is not true ;-) So any webservice will be in XML and it's inputs could be queries/XML strings/JSON strings/structures/strings/numbers/etc. Not sure if that helps you with your test packet issue....but hopefully it helps regardless ;-) Any chance serializeJSON() would help you make those test packets without typing it out the hard way?
