Oh, that's cool! The naming "RPC" threw me off. I knew that was there, but I guess my assumptions (I know , bad) were that it communicated over a different protocol, not using port 80. But, I suppose, tcp over port 80, spewing out xml is good. Probably just what I need. I'll look into that and get a better understanding. Thanks Chris.

I would love to have a product (called ZAjax :) that simply receives a request from the client and spits out xml. To be more specific, a set of classes that call ZSQL methods and retrieve records, then send that back in xml format.
We've had this built in to Zope for a long time in the form of XML- RPC. There are several JavaScript libraries that implement an XML- RPC client, the best in my recollection being vcXMLRPC.
