Posting input to external web service and then rendering back resultant XML
Hello there,
I am new to Umbraco and would like know how I could do the following: The visitor types in to a text box a domain name and when they hit return or clicks on an image button I want Umbraco to post that domain name to a form handler I will write on another site. This handler will then return some XML that I want Umbraco to render via XSLT. I am competent in c# and dotNet but before I dive in and write a load of code I was wondering of there is an existing easier way to do this?
I think it's better to use the umbraco technologie /base for this which is basically a read only rest implementation. That you can use on the box to return an xml fragment

Check this wiki http://our.umbraco.org/wiki/reference/umbraco-base for an overview and this blogpost http://www.nibble.be/?p=95 for a simpler configuration in Umbraco 4.6.1
