Offering web services for some basic tasks makes sense but not making an entire application that does all functionality over the web will be slow and impractical. Also, consider XML-RPC. Some people insist on hammering a nail with a sledgehammer (soap) when a XML-RPC implementation (the hammer) is better suited. That said, I use both raw XML, XML-RPC and SOAP for various tasks. It doesn't have to be all or the other (not that you implied that)... --Tony On Fri, 21 Mar 2003, Merlin wrote: > Hi everybody, > > I am currently trying to understand how to place content on a different site > without giving away my code.
