I 'm writing an application in PHP - MySQL where I have to look up USPS rates from the USPS site. It requires me to send XML text to a server, and then get an XML server response back.

All their examples use ASP, and Perl. But I'm a PHP person.

Anyone know how I can code PHP to do this?

Thanks.

php5 has much better library support for XML, but even php4 has some xml in there.

I would start looking for stuff here. Sorry I'm not more help, but while I have looked at using XML in php, I have yet to actually try it out.

Thanks for taking the time to reply.

But you know what? I kept searching the Net
and found exactly the PHP code I needed.

It worked like a charm, too. So now
i"m an ace at grabbing USPS shipping costs from the
USPS servers (if you should ever need any assistance.)

Thanks again.
