Re: Doing HTTP/POST from XSLT is fun!

Bonjour Eric


For those of you who read French, I came to the same (controversial)
conclusion on a real world case recently on XMLfr:

The problem is if you want to pass a bit more structure.

Yes, my example was easy enough. OTH, it's very often the case and then,
why would we use something more complex?


Bien sur! Absolutely, I agree. In fact, I used the document($url)
method before and it works great for simple GET transactions with
a flat list of arguments. But, as I said, the whole point here is
to allow me to play in the SOAP and "web services" game using
my favorite programming language, XSLT :-) That is what my
post:message extension is for. (It's not like I'm looking for
more work :-)

regards
-Gunther
