Re: UPS XPath and retrieving values question

[Scott Klement <sk@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Currently, you are calling http_url_post_xml() which parses XML that 
comes back from the server.

Change your program (temporarily) to call http_url_post() which won't 
parse the XML, it'll just save it to the IFS.  Then you can look at it 
to see what you're getting from UPS.

I'm not familiar with the CurrentStatus field being returned, but if 
they're sending it, you should see it in the IFS file you get back from 
UPS, and therefore adjust the code to retrieve it.
