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.

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.
