The internal search function is temporarily non-functional. The current search engine is no longer viable and we are researching alternatives.
As a stop gap measure, we are using Google's custom search engine service.

Hello,
The parser is not really that important, since I have a number of
ways to do that. What I am looking for is the mechanism to
send/receive XML from my HTML/Net.data code. This CURL stuff does
that, but seems to run on every OS known to man except OS/400.
The HTTPAPI tool does exactly that -- it sends/receives data using the
HTTP protocol. (It *also* has an XML parser, but that's not it's
primary purpose, and you don't have to use it if you don't want to.)
So HTTPAPI is a tool for sending bytes (it doesn't matter what format
they're in) over a network using the HTTP protocol. It's aimed at RPG
(not Net.Data) but I expect you can call RPG from Net.Data, correct?
If you don't like that -- Brad Stone also has a similar tool called
GETURI. Also designed for RPG/CL.
If you really have your heart set on cURL, it's available for i5/OS (I
have it installed!), but you have to run it in PASE. That would be a
non-issue from PHP (which also runs in PASE), though I don't know enough
about Net.Data to know if it can invoke PASE software. But if you
really want to use cURL and Net.Data can't invoke QShell or PASE, then
you could always write a CL wrapper around it, and invoke that.
Does that help?
