HelloI work for a Fortune 200 company that really is concerned aboutsecurity. We use application proxy based firewalls. There aremany application folks requiring XML communications with ourbusiness partners. My question is how do we get XML through ourapplication proxy firewalls securely? This means we are notinterested in putting in a plug.From my readings, it appears that XML can use HTTP and SSL as atransport protocol. But from previous attempts we can only getXML through our HTTP proxy if XML is wrapped in HTML. Is thathow we get the job done? Something doesn't seem right here. Ithought XML in itself has its own tags and doesn't necessarilyneed HTML.Thanks!!!Dave
