2507 Javascrip XML-RPC client experiences detlefsend@enovatia.com Fri, 08 Aug 2003 01:33:31 GMT 0 0

I have an xml-rpc server that I would like to make calls to from a browser using javascript. There are three choices on the implementations page but two of them (vcXMLRPC Library and XML-RPC JavaScript Message Builder appear to require PHP or perl script) and one (jsolait.xmlrpc) does not. I've got a couple of questions: 1. Why do two of the packages require additional help (PHP / Perl)...seems like we have a browser that can make HTTP calls, we have javascript that can marshal and unmarshall calls and we have html for forms and a crude user interface...we should be all set. 2. Looks like jsolait.xmlrpc is the most active (at least most recent) implementation of a js xml-rpc client...anybody had luck with this. I'm really anxious to get xml-rpc working in a browser. 3. In general, I'm looking to develop some cleint software that hits my xml-rpc server and I see doing it in a browser as the lowest barrier way to distribute to a user. Does that make sense?
