In a perfect world, sure. :) But that means yet another webapp (Axis, for example,) to learn and keep up with. Last time I tried to use Axis, it was not a trivial project. My webapps happen to be "correctly" designed with a separate data access layer and no business logic in the Actions. And I'm definitely interested in exposing some Actions via web services. Maybe they wouldn't be exactly the same Actions that are serving the browser view. But this would let me keep everything in one place. I don't expect it to be as powerful as what I could do with Axis, but if I can solve some problems within a webapp that's already up and running, without adding yet another "project" to my list, that would be great. I don't see how wanting to exposing an Action via web services implies that the Action contains business logic. -- Wendy Smoak Application Systems Analyst, Sr. ASU IA Information Resources Management --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
