Subject: snd and rcv xml data

Have a customer asking to place orders via xml files rather than the user
entry cgi web screens running on our iSeries using Apache http server. The
web screens accept multiple pages of data, then generate an order#. They
need that order number back. From many years ago, we also have ftp server
receiving orders and creating return files with order numbers they can get.
But this cust asking why they can't talk directly thru our http server,
place the order and get a response. I assume I need a cgi pgm that will
authenticate, rcv, calc, respond, but trying to understand how to format a
response. At V5r3 and not (yet) running websphere server. Perhaps a few
hundred orders a day like this..
