Russ,

You said you wanted quick and dirty pointers, so here it is.  Need more
specifics, please ask.

If it's SOAP based web service, then use CFINVOKE. (CFMX Only)

If it's custom XML such as the DesDev feed, use CFHTTP to grab the XML and
the XmlParse to create an XML object.  (CFMX Only, on CF5 use Xerces-J to
parse the XML)

If it's WDDX (or CFC web service being called from CF5) grab the XML with
CFHTTP and then parse with WDDX.  CF4 or later.

HTH,

Sam

Folks,

I apologize in advance for drudging up something that I'm guessing has
already been through the ringer, but my searches aren't helping my find
something that I've rather found to be fairly simple and straightforward
in Flash:

Pulling an XML feed.

That said, can anyone simply point me in the right direction?  No
spoilers, please.
