Hi

> Is there any good resources on CF/XML integration?  Any good web sites??

I'm giving a free seminar on CF/XML integration sometime in June, in London,
UK. You can sign up for it at

http://torchbox.com/xml

If you can't come, sign up anyway and I'll send you the support pack
(documentation, code samples, links to resources on the web).

I've written a custom tag which mimics CFQUERY, but uses an XML packet:

<cf_xmlquery       name = "myquery"
                            xmldata = "http://torchbox.com/myxml.xml";
                            xpath = "//people">

<cfoutput query = "myquery">
#person_id# #person_name# <br />
</cfoutput>

The 'xmldata' field - here shown coming from a URL - can also be a file on
the server or a local variable. You need to know a bit of XPATH to make the
most of it, but it's pretty easy (it's a bit like the XML equivalent of
SQL). 

If you're interested in this tag (I've also written XML versions of CFINSERT
and CFUPDATE) let me know and I'll send you a beta version.
