Hi Ray, may I ask why you chose to write an action? The reason for my asking is that it is difficult for an action to return anything to the pipeline - apart from a Map. In particular (and in this case) sunRise needs an XML representation streamed through the pipeline.
And from what I read you are "only" accessing a database - so the SQLTransformer would do the trick easily for you. So, one way to do this would be to write an XML file containing the SELECT stuff. Use a stylesheet to insert userid and password and then the SQLTransformer to do the select and then a stylesheet to format the rows to what sunRise needs.
