ok wayne, I think I am done responding to you, you don't get it.

 

To All: The solution provided with the overload of the useragent parameter
is a hack and should be seen as that. It creates a http request that does
not meet the spec by the payment company because it has 2 content-type
headers.

 

Of course we have all had to HACK a solution, and there is nothing wrong
with that. However, I would be wary doing this with a payment service on a
important ecommerce site of a client of mine. It may work today, but not
tomorrow. It can just break. The service may change their server code in a
way that more strictly follows the spec they have provided. The fact that a
hack works today is no guarantee it will work tomorrow. When the service
changes, you will have no recourse, because you were not following the spec.

 

Anyway, I thought I would throw that out, because it has happened to me
before, and you should be wary of it.

My frustration WAS towards John's continual unhelpful and critical posts.

You offered your services, I accepted. You did the work, I paid. In the
process you learnt something.




You can try with witango, using <@url> and plugging in the xml to the
POSTARGS  
parameter, but I don't think it will work.

As you found out, it does.

Here's the approach I work by on this list:
If some one asks a question that I can answer I then have to decide whether
or not to answer it. Then if I feel like it I answer it. If I don't I keep
my mouth shut.

And for that piece of advice: NO CHARGE.
