CF5 has native support for WDDX? - The beauty of XML is that it is not tied to any implementation. - There are already a number of third party libraries / tags that parse the XML into native cf data structures: http://www.macromedia.com/desdev/logged_in/ btw, i get just as many emails from people asking why the feed doesn't adhere to the RSS dtd (it was not flexible enough for us). thoughts? mike chambers [EMAIL PROTECTED] > -----Original Message----- > From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] > Sent: Wednesday, April 24, 2002 4:44 PM > To: CF-Talk > Subject: RE: Macromedia XML feed contest > > > It seems like it would be perfect for this.
