http response

[Guest]

So . . . I post a https successfully. I get an OK and ticket id in return. How do I get the second returned node? I know how to parse the xml, but I don't know how to set a variable for each returned value. Please help.

<cfset myXMLdoc = XMLParse(cfhttp.filecontent)>

I'm making this up to give an example of what I hope to do:
<cfset approval = cfhttp.status> ??
<cfset ticketid = cfhttp.ticketid> ??

Is it possible to set column names within cfhttp if the method="post"? The column names being the nodes in the response string.

I tried both of these examples. I received errors. I don't think I understand. In the example they gave, would "author" in #item.author.xmltext# be the name of the returned DOM?

<strong>Author</strong>  #item.author.xmltext#<br>

The output turned out to be so simple. It's amazing how long I had to search for this answer. I hope this helps someone else:

<cfset MyDoc = XMLParse(CFHTTP.FileContent)>

<cfset response = MyDoc.xmlRoot.XmlChildren[2]>

<cfoutput>#variables.response#</cfoutput>

<cfset MyDoc = XMLParse(CFHTTP.FileContent)>
<cfset response = MyDoc.xmlRoot.XmlChildren[2]>
<cfoutput>#variables.response#</cfoutput>

I suspect that wouldn't work. These would

<cfset response = MyDoc.xmlRoot.XmlChildren[2].XmlName>
<cfset response = MyDoc.xmlRoot.XmlChildren[2].XmlText>

It did work, so I thought. It gave me the output value which "appeared" to be correct. It evidently was still outputting in the wrong format? I'm not sure I understand why it looked like the right output, but it actually wasn't. Is that due to the format it was in?

Your additional information finished what I needed. Thank you!
