    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?

     

    Many thanks in advance

     

    Jonathan

    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

    Cheers,

    Richard
