Try this. You will need to compile it, instruction on how to do that are in the java CFX section of the cf documentation;
Save it as sendXMLData.java And compile; Javac -classpath cfx.jar sendXMLData.java This should produce a class file, stick that in x:\cfusion\java\classes and register it as a custom tag. Then just call it like; <cfx_sendXMLData url="http://yoururlhere.com"; XMLData=""> <cfoutput>#Response#</cfoutput> This probably isn't great java, but it is however very fast and stable, Good luck, Craig. --- import com.allaire.cfx.* ; import java.io.* ; import java.net.* ; import java.util.* ; public class sendXMLData implements CustomTag{ public void processRequest( Request request, Response response ) throws Exception { if ( !request.attributeExists("XMLData") || !request.attributeExists("Url") ) { throw new Exception( "Missing attribute (XMLData and Url are required attributes for this tag)" ) ; } String Url = request.getAttribute("Url") ; String messageBody = request.getAttribute("XMLData"); URL url = new URL( Url ); HttpURLConnection connection = ( HttpURLConnection ) url.openConnection(); connection.setDoOutput( true ); connection.setDoInput( true ); connection.setRequestMethod( "POST" ); connection.setUseCaches( false ); connection.setRequestProperty( "Content-type", "application/x-www-form-urlencoded"); String dataString = "XMLData=" + URLEncoder.encode(XMLData); DataOutputStream dos = new DataOutputStream( connection.getOutputStream() ); dos.writeBytes( dataString ); dos.flush(); dos.close(); InputStream is = connection.getInputStream(); BufferedReader reader = new BufferedReader( new InputStreamReader( is )); StringBuffer answer = new StringBuffer(); String line = null; while ( ( line = reader.readLine() ) != null ){ answer.append(line); } is.close(); response.setVariable( "Response", answer.toString()); } } --- -----Original Message----- From: Frank Mamone [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: 29 November 2002 16:03 To: CF-Talk Subject: Re: Posting XML Looks like their download site is down.
