Hi Dave
I'm not sure about soXML (the author's on this list - maybe he can help...)
but you can use CF_XMLQUERY to get what you want as follows:
=====================
<cfset myx = '<?xml version="1.0"?>
<newsfeed>
<channel cid="sporting_news.mlb.hl"
title="The Sporting News: MLB"
date="07/22/2001"
time="12:28 PST">
<headline
href="http://shortenedurlforthispurpose.com";
date="Tue, July 24, 2001 09:28 AM"
time="09:28 PST">No. 1 overall pick Mauer has two hits in pro debut
</headline>
</channel>
</newsfeed>'>
<cf_xmlquery xmldata = "#myx#"
xpath = "channel/headline"
name = "newq">
<cfoutput query = "newq">
headline: #headline#<br>
URL: #headline_href#<br>
Date: #headline_date#<br>
Time: #headline_time#<br>
</cfoutput>
=====================
I've written out the XML to make it explicit, but in your case you'd be
better off accessing the URL directly from the tag:
<cf_xmlquery
xmldata = "http://headlines.isyndicate.com/someurl.xml";
type = "url"
xpath = "channel/headline"
name = "newq">
Hope this helps
Tom
