I'm aware of the various issues associated with serialisation and de-serialisation of complex types and initially followed the Beanserialiser approach. However, I found that my XML document didn't follow a predictable format and couldn't be described as an object or set of objects. Is it possible to just return a raw XML document from an Axis service and how is this done? Regards, C.
