Hi Robert, Try the following, using the POSTARGS attribute of @URL (requires Tango SP1 at least).
<@assign local$tmpXML value="<@dom value='<@url location="https://wwwcie.ups.com/ups.app/xml/Rate"; from="someone<@CRLF>Content-Type: text/xml" postargs="<myxml></myxml>">'>"> Typically this works without using the <@URLENCODE> metatag because an XML over HTTP post is not expected, by the receiving server, to be encoded. Try it with and without the tag, if you're still having problems. I also recommend including the FROM attribute because it allows you insert an extra HTTP Request Header entry ( Content-Type: text/xml ) so that the receiver knows to expect XML. Also, I noticed that the XML you are trying to send contains 2 XML documents (2 root elements) - this is a no-no. Only one root element is allowed, to qualify your content as XML. Hope this helps. Cheers.....

I seem to be connecting to the server, but am not getting back the necessary XML results. The whole <@ASSIGN <@DOM <@URL makes sense to me, but I haven't had much experience with this way of sending and receiving data. I have looked at all XML/UPS issues on Witango.ws. All emails were very helpful, but unfortunately none have gotten me over the hump. Any assistance would be greatly appreciated. I have attached the TAF content below.
