I know it's a concept, but using that concept as the "language" or "data transport" and the data format being JSON. I could try to map these to OSI model or TCP/IP model levels but I can't be bothered. I just find SOAP to be too bloated and an annoyance to work with. I mean, technically, a SOAP request is "RESTful" too since it can use POST or GET... but I don't like to consider it RESTful :) -- PHP General Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php
