Jeff,

You could use SOXML, it provides ColdFusion programmers with an easy to use
interface for integration of XML with CF.

This custom tag is open-source (of course), free, and action based.

These actions include:
� XML2CF (Converts a XML document into a complex CF structure)

� XML2DOM (Loads the XML document into a valid XML DOM object accessed via
CF)

� XML2HTML (Displays the XML document as IE does but INLINE! very cool for
debugging)

� CF2XML (Transforms any CF variable into a valid XML document)

� CF2XMLDOM (Transforms any CF variable into a valid XML DOM object
accessible with CFML)

� Transform (Transforms any XML document based on a specified XSL document)

Subject: Updating an XML file so Flash can use it


Hi all,

I have a client that needs CF to update an XML file that flash reads to
display info.

I was wondering if anyone has any tips, tags, or advice to help get me
started on my project of updating his existing XML file.

Also, I know that CF supports WDDX, which is a dialect of XML, I was
wondering if Flash can read this dialect of XML.  If so I assume that this
would make the project very easy.

The XML file is below.  I suppose I could use CFFile to make the changes I
need, but I figure there is a more XML supported way ;)
Basically, I have to ad article elements to the file.

Thanks in advance,
Jeff
