xmlrpc[1] is similar. <?xml version="1.0"?> <methodCall> <methodName>examples.getStateName</methodName> <params> <param> <value><i4>41</i4></value> </param> </params> </methodCall> my favorite part[2] is how <params> only contain <param> elements within. each <param> has exactly one child. Why is it not just <params><i4>41</i4></params>?. Its no surprise that the creator of xmlrpc was involved with soap. [1] http://www.xmlrpc.com/spec http://www.xmlrpc.com/spec [2] not really.
