I'm (I believe) with Tim in saying "pick one". Just one. For clients and servers. And I'm only saying that JSON is preferable because it has pretty much taken over -- I see JSON all the time with webbish ajax-y data stuff and XML almost never unless it's something vaguely markup-like. JSON is clean in a what you see is what you get kind of way, and I'm puzzled by people calling a 6 year old RFC a "flavor of the day" -- c'mon. From a programming standpoint, JSON is just easier to deal with. Consider these two links: http://php.net/manual/en/book.json.php http://php.net/manual/en/book.xml.php and tell me which you'd rather deal with. It's not huge, but it's not nothing either. Mike Mike
