[Tclxml-users] insight into Tcl XML-RPC problem

[Brian L. <bl...@hc...>]

ok, I had a couple of problems: 

1) the http::geturl method is sending application/x-url-encoded (or
something like that) as the content-type when submitting data to the
server.  I solved that by writing some hacky code to do the socket
communication with the server by hand.  Its not very robust and is a
break-fix.

2) The PHP XML-RPC server being used with meerkat didn't dig the
<!DOCTYPE...> part of the XML stream that was added by the dom.tcl

3) The elementOptionsRO variable in dom.tcl should have the options
separated by a "|" instead of a space; this broke the regexp command.

4) In dom::Trim, the function was trying to iterate over a variable that
wasn't set, raising an error.  I wrapped that in an if.

Attached is my modified dom.tcl (based on TclDOM-1.6), xmlrpc.tcl (From
Aaron's post the other day), and my really simple driver script that
reflects the new signature of the xmlrpc::call method.

Gotta go.  Let me know if I came even close on these!
