I am writing an application to send a request to a webserver. The webserver inturn will send me an html. Is there a way to use this html instead of an xml? Thanks

webserver as IVR application server

Hi nudeze,

Yes, it's fine that your webserver return HTML back to you (as HTML is just a specific flavor of XML). However, this HTML would need to be parsed with some sort of XML parser and then manually translated to use for your IVR application.

The following links may help you with this process:
