Didn't look at it yet, but I guess you lost me here.  How
do you communicate the data through HTTP, using the correct
headers (like you mentioned you do) et al without using a
POST?  (If the answer is with a GET, Im not interested..
snicker)

I should have wrote the sentence as "...but to make my point more valid let
me give you an example where I thought XML via POST would be better than a
name value pairs via POST."

I use POST for the XML.  Then on the receiving end I just read in whatever
CONTENT_LENGTH tells me was sent.

Sorry :-P

>See where I'm going with this?
Nope, you are going to have to hint harder. . .:-)
