The company i am working for has a contract requiring us to get data from an OS9 Mac to a website using AppleScript. We can get the data out of Quark and in to XML, now we just need to send it to a PHP script via SOAP/XMLRPC or HTTP Post. How would i go about this? Is there a way to do this via AppleScript? or maybe a Java app to call the AppleScript then have the Java controlling App Upload?

Anyone know of any plugins to just allow AppleScript to do this?

NOTE: Updating to OS X is not an option... ive suggested it and have tried to talk them in to it.


There is applescript support for SOAP/XMLRPC : the question is does this support go back to whatever
version of Applescript runs on OS9. As far as I can remember it does predate OSX, but I could be wrong.


It might be simpler to do this in Python -- the current release of Python is no longer built for OS9, but
older versions are avaliable at: <http://homepages.cwi.nl/~jack/ macpython/>
That version should include XML, HTTP and Applescript support.


I'm not sure if OS9's Java gives you any hooks into Applescript.
