I don't understand why you're having such a hard time building this. Are you looking for someone who has already built one of these things so you can use it, or are you interested in creating one yourself? The reason I ask is because, well, I see lots of complaining that there are no examples you can use. What's stopping you from writing your own? PHP 5 has great tools for parsing XML, so how hard would it be to do the following: 1) create a controller 2) create an action in that controller that reads input from either a POST or GET, depending on what you want 3) parse the incoming XML response using SimpleXML 4) spit out a response to the browser based on the input You don't need some fancy built-in xmlrpc handler to do this. I guess I will put my money where my mouth is and build a simple XMLRPC service on the weekend in CakePHP and post how I did it to my blog on Monday or Tuesday. Marcus, please don't feel that I'm picking on you because I'm not. I'm trying to point out that building things like this isn't as difficult as you're making it out to be. Have you also looked at this page: http://manual.cakephp.org/chapter/configuration There is an example of how to build a web service down at the bottom of the page. Hope that helps, and I'll let the list know when I've gotten my simple example of an XML-RPC service up and running. -- Chris Hartjes "The greatest inefficiencies come from solving problems you will never have." -- Rasmus Lerdorf @TheBallpark - http://www.littlehart.net/attheballpark @TheKeyboard - http://www.littlehart.net/atthekeyboard --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Cake PHP" group.
