True, WDDX is XML, but that fact is completely hidden from the
developer.
With WDDX we can make XML strings with a single function call instead
of
having to piece them together. In order to use WDDX a developer does
not
need to know anything at all about XML.

Actually, isn't WDDX just an implementation of XML? That is, if you use
WDDX, you're using XML.
Not to split hairs, but that's how I see it.
And, if you use WDDX you have the parsers for other languages, too:
PHP,
etc.

I'm not sure if this is OT or not but here goes...
Why would I use WDDX instead of just using straight XML?
-there are SEVERAL good parsers out there.
-The javascript that it takes to create the "packets" is not that
complex.
-The "packets" aren't really any kind of packets their just strings
that
are parsed...XML?
and more...
I actually am interested in using it and I have no direct quams with
using
WDDX but why would I use it when we have an XML framework already
built for other applications?
Thanks-
Savan
