FMS7 Advanced and XML POST

[ESJosh]

The ecommerce company that I work for (eSellerate) provides a mechanism where order information can be sent via an HTTP POST to a web server for immediate order notifications. The body of the POST is XML based on a schema that eSellerate defines. Is there a way to interface this with Filemaker Server 7 Advanced without the need for PHP, or am I going to have to write a PHP/WebObjects page to receive the post, translate it to the appropriate INSERT SQL call and insert the information into the DB via ODBC/JDBC?

Thanks!

FMS7A returns XML from http requests. This is even true for the PHP solutions, PHP just handles the XML returned by FM. Hence, you can use anything that can deal with XML.

All the best.
