I wouldn't make that assumption. It could be any sort of XML at all, unless you've specifically agreed to use SOAP. > Is it possible to use WDDX to grab that packet and manipulate > it as needed? Only if the XML is, in fact, WDDX. If it's SOAP, it's not WDDX. > Is it possible to parse that packet as straight text? If so, how? You could, but, ugh. You should be able to read it using the GetHTTPRequestData function, which was introduced in CF 5. But again, ugh. I'd use an external XML parser from CF - if you're using Windows, look into the MSXML COM object. > Or do I need to install a customtag that deals with SOAP, exclusively? You should first confirm exactly what XML you're receiving.
